Description

For centuries, the sorites paradox has spurred philosophers to think and argue about the problem of vagueness.

This volume offers a guide to the paradox which is both an accessible survey and an exposition of the state of the art, with a chapter-by-chapter presentation of all of the main solutions to the paradox and of all its main areas of influence.

Each chapter offers a gentle introduction to its topic, gradually building up to a final discussion of some open problems.

Students will find a comprehensive guide to the fundamentals of the paradox, together with lucid explanations of the challenges it continues to raise.

Researchers will find exciting new ideas and debates on the paradox.
