Quantifiers, Quantifiers, and Quantifiers: Themes in Logic, Metaphysics, and Language
This volume covers a wide range of topics that fall under the 'philosophy of quantifiers', a philosophy that spans across multiple areas such as logic, metaphysics, epistemology, and even the history of philosophy. It discusses the import of quantifier variance in the model theory of mathe...
