{"product_id":"spandrels-of-truth-9780199268740","title":"Spandrels of Truth","description":"Among the various conceptions of truth is one according to which 'is true' is a transparent, entirely see-through device introduced for only practical (expressive) reasons. This device, when introduced into the language, brings about truth-theoretic paradoxes (particularly, the notorious Liar and Curry paradoxes). The options for dealing with the paradoxes while preserving the full transparency of 'true' are limited. In \u003cem\u003eSpandrels of Truth\u003c\/em\u003e, Beall concisely presents and defends a modest, so-called dialetheic theory of transparent truth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e J.
