Reduction - Abstraction - Analysis
Philosophers often have tried to either reduce 'disagreeable' objects or concepts to (more) acceptable objects or concepts. Reduction is regarded attractive by those who subscribe to an ideal of ontological parsimony. This volume includes articles by Alexander Bird, Jaakko Hintikka, James Ladyman, Rohit Parikh, Gerhard Schurz and Peter Simons.
