      This book develops a new theory of vagueness, based on the idea that vagueness is a global rather than a local phenomenon. This leads to a new semantics for vagueness and a new logic. Kit fine then applies this theory to traditional philosophical puzzles including the sorites paradox, the problem of personal identity and to the transparency of mental phenomenon.

      The book presents a Fregean theory of abstraction, proposing a novel philosophical foundation for mathematics. It aims to reconcile our references to mathematical objects with our understanding of mathematical truths. By exploring both technical and philosophical dimensions, it offers innovative insights into the nature of abstraction and its implications for the field of mathematics.
