If Carl Hiaasen set one of his novels on a residential stretch of boundary line between British Columbia and Washington, or if Richard Russo's characters had relatives in the Pacific Northwest, the result might be something like Jim Lynch's Border Songs. Continue »

In Contradiction

by Graham Priest

In Contradiction Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In Contradiction advocates and defends the view that there are true contradictions (dialetheism), a view that flies in the face of orthodoxy in Western philosophy since Aristotle. The book has been at the center of the controversies surrounding dialetheism ever since its first publication in 1987. This second edition of the book substantially expands upon the original in various ways, and also contains the author's reflections on developments over the last two decades. Further aspects of dialetheism are discussed in the companion volume,Doubt Truth to be a Liar, also published by Oxford University Press in 2006.

Review:

"In Contradiction covers an impressive range of subjects.... I strongly recommend its reading to anyone interested in logic and language."--Jose Martinez Fernandez, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
