520 | 8 | |a Despite its small stature, 'if' occupies a central place both in everyday language and the philosophical lexicon. In allowing us to talk about hypothetical situations, 'if' raises a host of thorny philosophical puzzles about language and logic. Addressing them requires tools from linguistics, logic, probability theory and metaphysics. Justin Khoo uses these tools to navigate a maze of interconnected issues about conditionals, some of which include the nature of linguistic communication, the relationship between logical and natural languages, and the relationship between different kinds of modality. | |
