Synopsis:

A paradox (from the Greek word meaning contrary to expectation) is a statement that seems self-contradictory but may be true. Exploring the distinction between truth and plausibility, the author presents a standardized, straightforward approach for deciphering paradoxes one that can be applied to all their forms, whether clever wordplay or more complex issues.

About the Author: Nicholas Rescher is professor of philosophy and director of the Center for Philosophy of Science at the University of Pittsburgh. A past president of the Eastern Division of the American Philosophical Association and former editor of American Philosophical Quarterly, he is the author of over 80 books.
