Possible Individuals, Trans-World Identity, and Quantified Modal Logic

Quantifiers, Propositions and Identity:

📁 Quantifiers, Propositions and Identity: Admissible Semantics for Quantified Modal and Substructural Logics

✍ Robert Goldblatt 📂 Library 📅 2011 🏛 Cambridge University Press / Association for Symbo 🌐 English

Many systems of quantified modal logic cannot be characterised by Kripke's well-known possible worlds semantic analysis. This book shows how they can be characterised by a more general 'admissible semantics', using models in which there is a restriction on which sets of worlds count as propositions.

✍ Charles S. Chihara 📂 Library 📅 2001 🏛 Oxford University Press, USA 🌐 English

This book is truly awful. It's an attack on Platinga and Forbes' views (well, and of course Lewis as well) concerning actualism, possibilism, modal realism, and related areas. It is poorly written, the arguments are unconvincing, and the logic, where it occurs, is unmotivated and uninteresting. Ther

A powerful challenge to some highly influential theories, this book offers a thorough critical exposition of modal realism, the philosophical doctrine that many possible worlds exist of which our own universe is just one. Chihara challenges this claim and offers a new argument for modality without
