Impossible Worlds

A few new books.

I already have these two books — Berto and Jago (2019) and Berto (2022) — on my ereader, but I find myself going back to them so much, I decided to buy print versions. (Berto (2022) is actually open access, so you can get it for free!)

These books both discuss how we should understand thought and talk about the impossible. It’s an exciting program because philosophers of the last century have largely taken impossibility to be either trivial or obscure. I think philosophers have become bold again.
