This case proceeds by first undermining the appeal of classical mereology and then showing how it fails to cohere with our intuitions about a measure of quantity.Part Two shows how Heyting mereology provides an account of sets and classes without resort to any non mereological primitive. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Notre Dame Journal of Formal Logic, 43(2), p. 79-94 | Publisher: | University of Notre Dame | Place of Publication: | South Bend, United States of America | ISSN: | 0029-4527 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 220308 Logic | Peer Reviewed: | Yes | HERDC Category Description: | C1 Refereed Article in a Scholarly Journal |
