Circular analyses of philosophical, linguistic, or computational phenomena
have been attacked on the assumption that they conflict with mathematical
rigour. Barwise and Moss have undertaken to prove this assumption false. This
volume is concerned with extending the modelling capabilities of set theory to
provide a uniform treatment of circular phenomena. As a means of guiding the
reader through the concrete examples of the theory, the authors have included
many exercises and solutions: these exercises range in difficulty and
ultimately stimulate the reader to come up with new results. Vicious Circles
is intended for use by researchers who want to use hypersets; although some
experience in mathematics is necessary, the book is accessible to people with
widely differing backgrounds and interests.
