The concept of identity has been seen to lead to a paradox - we cannot truly and usefully say that a thing is the same either as itself or as something else. This book is a full examination of this paradox in philosophical logic, and of its implications for the philosophy of mathematics.
The concept of identity has been seen to lead to paradox: we cannot truly and usefully say that a thing is the same either as itself or as something else.

The author''s account involves detailed discussion of the views of Wittgenstein, Russell, Frege, and Hintikka.
