Return of the A Priori

Philip Hanson and Bruce Hunter, editors

About the Book

This volume contains ten new essays on a priori knowledge by authors from Canada, the United States, Australia, and Europe Topics addressed include the nature, explanation, and indispensability of a priori knowledge, its connection with analytic truth, its place in mathematics, in logic, and in empirical theory, and the contribution of Kant and Quine to these topics. The focus is on twentieth-century contributions to these issues, but most essays also address earlier discussions at some length, and the essays that focus on Kant also relate his views to more recent discussions.
