Book Description:

The essays in this volume present a case for pluralism in mathematics and its logics, largely supporting coexistence despite apparent contradictions between different systems. In addition, the volume further develops Hellman's modal-structuralist account of mathematics, recognizing indefinite extendability of models and stages at which sets occur.
