Ep. 16 - What is Logic? | Dr. Timothy Williamson
About this episode
Logic has been called many things - "the rules of language", "the rules of reasoning", "the rules of existence", and so on. I want to know what logic is, so I spoke with Dr. Timothy Williamson of Oxford University to help me find out.
We cover a ton of great topics - the nature of logic, language, paradoxes, and the metaphysics of concepts and numbers.
