He introduced many influential\u003cbr\u003ephilosophical ideas, such as the distinctions between function and argument, or\u003cbr\u003ebetween sense and reference. However, his thought is not readily accessible to\u003cbr\u003ethe non- expert. His conception of logic, which was crucial to his grand\u003cbr\u003eproject, the reduction of arithmetic to logic, is especially difficult to\u003cbr\u003egrasp. This book provides a lucid and critical introduction to Frege's logic, \u003cbr\u003eas he developed it in his groundbreaking first book Begriffsschrift (Conceptual Notation, 1879). It guides the reader\u003cbr\u003edirectly to the core of Frege's philosophy, and to some of the most pertinent\u003cbr\u003eissues in contemporary philosophy of language, logic, mathematics, and mind.\u003cbr\u003eUnlike most other books, this commentary explains Frege's own logical notation, \u003cbr\u003eallowing students to study and appreciate those aspects of his work that he\u003cbr\u003evalued most but are least understood today.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45083828650135,"sku":"9780826487636","price":13951.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780826487636.webp?v=1767264125","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/frege-a-guide-for-the-perplexed-9780826487636","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
