Infinity, Causation, and Paradox
Oxford, England: Oxford University Press (2018)
Abstract
Alexander R. Pruss examines a large family of paradoxes to do with infinity - ranging from deterministic supertasks to infinite lotteries and decision theory. Having identified their common structure, Pruss considers at length how these paradoxes can be resolved by embracing causal finitism.Author's Profile
