Many philosophers are aware of the paradoxes of set theory (e.g. Russell's paradox). For many people, these were solved by the iterative conception of set which holds that sets are formed in stages by collecting sets available at previous stages. This Element will examine possibilities for articulating this solution. In particular, the author argues that there are different kinds of iterative conception, and it's open which of them (if any) is the best. Along the way, the author hopes to make some of the underlying mathematical and philosophical ideas behind tricky bits of the philosophy of set theory clear for philosophers more widely and make their relationships to some other questions in philosophy perspicuous. - Inbunden, Engelska, 2024

This volume showcases some of the up-and-coming voices of an emerging field - the philosophy of set theory - which in recent years has gained prominence in the philosophy of mathematics. The chapters in this volume both present new topics and propose solutions to old problems. It contains a broad picture of the philosophy of set theory, examining questions from epistemology and ontology, whilst touching on the use of formal theories in the study of mathematical infinity.Key features of this volume: • Explores new and interesting connections between philosophy, set theory, and the study of infinity.• Considers questions intended to appeal to a wider audience in both philosophy and mathematical logic.• Examines three key areas of study: Epistemology, Formal Theories, and Ontology.The book provides a key reference text for future debates and is ideal for both newcomers to the philosophy of set theory and established researchers in the field. - E-bokEngelska, 2025
