1	The Principles of Mathematics Revisited more books like this by Jaakko Hintikka add to wishlist This book, written by one of philosophy's pre-eminent logicians, argues that many of the basic assumptions common to logic, philosophy of mathematics and metaphysics are in need of change.

11 view cover	Analyses of Aristotle more books like this by Jaakko Hintikka add to wishlist Aristotle thought of his logic and methodology as applications of the Socratic questioning method.

Calculus Ratiocinator: An Ultimate Presupposition of Twentieth-Century Philosophy more books like this by Jaakko Hintikka add to wishlist Twentieth-century philosophy has tacitly been dominated by a deep contrast between universalist and model-theoretical visions of language.
