Vagueness and Contradiction
Sorensen, Roy (, Professor of Philosophy, Dartmouth College.)
This is Roy Sorensens original treatment of the ancient problem of vagueness. According to his approach, the answer to questions like 'Did Buddha become a fat man in one second?' and 'Is there a tallest short giraffe?' is yes! This title says serious things about language and logic, about the way the world is and about our understanding of it.
