Paradoxes--sets of propositions that are individually plausible but
collectively inconsistent--range from transparent tricks of
word-play to more puzzling issues. For example, if the barber, an
adult male in the village, shaves all adult males who do not shave
themselves, then he both shaves himself and does not shave himself.
In this fresh and uncluttered approach, Nicholas Rescher introduces
the subject, surveys the entire range of types of paradoxes, and
introduces an integrated theory of paradoxes. He explains and
analyzes over 130 paradoxes, showing how they can all be handled by
one approach.
