Introducing a major new series Princeton Foundations of , series editor

The state-of-the-art books in the series are written by leading experts in major areas of active research in contemporary philosophy—with each book serving as a high-level introduction to advanced think- ing in the area. Although major questions and approaches are covered, the books are neither neutral surveys of the literature, nor highly specialized contributions filling gaps in already well-known research programs. Instead, each presents the author’s own unifying vision of a field or topic as it exists today—its recent history and leading themes, its most exciting new develop- ments, and its most important unanswered questions. The premise of the series is that with so much specialized work being done on so many different topics, there is a need to articulate synoptic views of active areas of research, with an eye to developing com- mon understandings, and charting future progress. The books are designed to have wide appeal to advanced undergraduates and graduate students in philosophy, to provide specialists with the new ideas and unifying perspec- tives of leading experts in their own fields, and to offer compact and comprehensible explanations of neighboring fields to other working professionals. In addition to their use in organizing courses, and providing starting points for graduate seminars, the books are intended to stimulate discussion and debate among about the present direction, and future course, of their common enterprise.

“In a word, this book is terrific. It covers the basics of philosophical logic in a lively, interesting, and informative way.” —Stewart Shapiro, editor of The Oxford Handbook of Philosophy of Mathematics and Logic

Philosophical Logic is a clear and concise critical survey of nonclassical of philosophical interest written by one of the world’s leading authorities on the subject. After giving an overview of classical logic, John Burgess introduces five central branches of nonclassical logic (temporal, modal, condi- tional, relevantistic, and intuitionistic), focusing on the sometimes problematic relationship between formal apparatus and intuitive motivation. Requiring minimal background and arranged to make the more technical material optional, the book offers a choice between an overview and in-depth study, and it balances the philosophical and technical aspects of the subject.

“Part intellectual history, part a study of contemporary politics, Nancy Rosenblum’s exciting, original book poses an energetic challenge to both political theory and to citizens disaffected by democracy today. For those who think democracy would be better without strong political parties, Rosenblum seeks to show that parties and partisanship are central to meaningful political commitment.” —Richard H. Pildes, New York University School of Law

On the Side of the Angels offers an ethics of partisanship that speaks to ques- tions of centrism, extremism, and polarization in American party politics. By rescuing parties from their status as orphans of political philosophy, Rosenblum fills a significant void in political and democratic theory.

Nancy L. Rosenblum is the Senator Joseph Clark Professor of Ethics in Politics and Government and chair of the Department of Government at Harvard University.
