Model theory is used in every theoretical branch of analytic philosophy: in philosophy of mathematics, in philosophy of science, in philosophy of language, in philosophical logic, and in metaphysics. But these wide-ranging uses of model theory have created a highly fragmented literature. On the one hand, many philosophically significant results are found only in mathematics textbooks: these are aimed squarely at mathematicians; they typically presuppose that the reader has a serious background in mathematics; and little clue is given as to their philosophical significance. On the other hand, the philosophical applications of these results are scattered across disconnected pockets of papers. The first aim of this book, then, is to explore the philosophical uses of model theory, focusing on the central topics of reference, realism, and doxology. Its second aim is to address important questions in the philosophy of model theory, such as: sameness of theories and structure, the boundaries of logic, and the classification of mathematical structures. Philosophy and Model Theory will be accessible to anyone who has completed an introductory logic course. It does not assume that readers have encountered model theory before, but starts right at the beginning, discussing philosophical issues that arise even with conceptually basic model theory. Moreover, the book is largely self-contained: model-theoretic notions are defined as and when they are needed for the philosophical discussion, and many of the most philosophically significant results are given accessible proofs.

Philosophy and Model Theory

Three gangsters, friends from Liverpool, Manchester and London since the English rave days of the late '80’s and '90’s, come together on one balmy spring morning in 'noughties London to pull one last diamond job and fulfill their dreams of a retirement in Ibiza. The friends and their siblings are not the only ones who want to leave it all behind and their enemies (consisting of Manchester Yardies, a branch of the Liverpool Mafia as well as the English Mafia) are waiting to try and snatch the dream away and secure their own ticket to the sun. “The Hatton diamonds are the prize and with it comes a rioutous catalogue of casualties, scams, double dealing, mischief, back stabbing and above all... Ice Cool.”

"I detest Heroin since being burned but I do miss the cosy feeling running through my old bones. My solution is to drink whisky and have the heating on through the night. The bills are astronomical but I don't give a fuck darling. Anything to keep me off the junk. That's my scarf you're wearing..."
