W.V. Quine, a champion of philosophical naturalism and pioneer of
mathematical logic, was one of the most important philosophers of
the 20th century. Contemporary thought in ontology, epistemology,
and the philosophy of logic and language owes much to his
influence, yet recent work in these areas has become increasingly
dismissive of his views. This is often because of mistaken or
overly simplified conceptions of his philosophy which overlook the
development of his views over time, in particular the growing
importance of a kind of structuralism to his system as it evolved.
This volume provides a fuller, richer picture of Quine's views and
their development. With contributions from leading philosophers in
a range of subfields including philosophical logic, philosophy of
language, history of philosophy, mathematics, philosophy of time,
and set theory, it is the first to investigate Quine's views on
structure and how it permeates and shapes his attitude to a range
of philosophical questions.
