Logic without borders : essays on set theory, model theory, philosophical logic, and philosophy of mathematics / edited by Åsa Hirvonen, Juha Kontinen, Roman Kossak, and Andrés Villaveces.

In recent years, mathematical logic has developed in many directions, the initial unity of its subject matter giving way to a myriad of seemingly unrelated areas. The articles collected here, which range from historical scholarship to recent research in geometric model theory, squarely address this...
