Spanning from the publication of Frege's \"Begriffsschrift\" in 1879 to Ramsey's passing in 1930, this period witnessed a remarkable era of discovery. Potter, a renowned scholar of this era, offers a profound yet accessible account of the transition from absolute idealism and neo-Kantianism to the emergence of approaches that capitalized on the newly discovered methods in logic. While his primary areas of interest include philosophical logic, philosophy of mathematics, and metaphysics, he also delves into epistemology, meta-ethics, and the philosophy of language. This book serves as an indispensable guide for students seeking to comprehend the works of Frege, Russell, Wittgenstein, and Ramsey, as well as their intricate interactions and the broader intellectual context in which they operated. Moreover, it provides valuable insights into contemporary philosophical problems by shedding light on their historical roots.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 774g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 153 x 228 x 34 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781138015142\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Michael Potter","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44104915878138,"sku":"9781138015142","price":49.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/8fe4dbbb6201b96e47b73d2b8ed80a53.jpg?v=1624412954","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/rise-of-analytic-philosophy-1879-1930-from-frege-to-ramsey","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
