Mathematics and logic have been central topics of concern since the dawn of philosophy. Since logic is the study of correct reasoning, it is a fundamental branch of epistemology and a priority in any philosophical system. Philosophers have focused on mathematics as a case study for general philosophical issues and for its role in overall knowledge- gathering. Today, philosophy of mathematics and logic remain central disciplines in contemporary philosophy, as evidenced by the regular appearance of articles on these topics in the best mainstream philosophical journals; in fact, the last decade has seen an explosion of scholarly work in these areas. This volume covers these disciplines in a comprehensive and accessible manner, giving the reader an overview of the major problems, positions, and battle lines. The 26 contributed chapters are by established experts in the field, and their articles contain both exposition and criticism as well as substantial development of their own positions. The essays, which are substantially self-contained, serve both to introduce the reader to the subject and to engage in it at its frontiers. Certain major positions are represented by two chapters--one supportive and one critical. The Oxford Handbook of Philosophy of Math and Logic is a ground-breaking reference like no other in its field. It is a central resource to those wishing to learn about the philosophy of mathematics and the philosophy of logic, or some aspect thereof, and to those who actively engage in the discipline, from advanced undergraduates to professional philosophers, mathematicians, and historians.

自哲学诞生以来，数学和逻辑一直是人们关注的核心话题。由于逻辑是对正确推理的研究，它是认识论的一个基本分支，在任何哲学体系中都是优先的。哲学家们将数学作为一般哲学问题的案例研究，并关注其在整个知识收集中的作用。今天，数学哲学和逻辑学仍然是当代哲学的核心学科，最好的主流哲学期刊上经常出现关于这些主题的文章就证明了这一点；事实上，在过去十年中，这些领域的学术工作出现了爆炸性增长。本卷以全面和易懂的方式涵盖了这些学科，让读者对主要问题、立场和战线有一个概览。26个章节是由该领域的知名专家撰写的，他们的文章中既有论述和批评，也有对他们自己立场的实质性发展。这些文章基本上是自成一体的，既能向读者介绍这个主题，又能在其前沿进行讨论。某些主要的立场由两章来代表--一个是支持性的，一个是批评性的。牛津数学和逻辑哲学手册》是一本开创性的参考书，在其领域内是独一无二的。对于那些希望了解数学哲学和逻辑哲学或其某些方面的人，以及那些积极从事该学科的人，从高级本科生到专业哲学家、数学家和历史学家，它是一种核心资源。
