  Logic is fundamental to thought and language. But which logical principles are correct? The so-called Liar and Heap paradoxes challenge our basic ideas about logic; they teach us that the correct logical principles are not as obvious as common sense would have it. The essays in this volume, discuss novel thoughts about the paradoxes.
