Additional information
In this chapter (13,600 words), the sections ‘Łukasiewicz’s Łogic’ to ‘A Truth-Functional Solution to the Problem of Future Contingents’ (3800 words) incorporate approximately 2000 words of work published previously in ‘Future Contingents, Non-Bivalence and the Law of Excluded Middle Muddle’ Analysis, Volume 64, No. 2, April 2004: 122-8. (Also in C. Bourne, A Future for Presentism (Oxford University Press, 2006), chapter 3.) As well as tailoring this material to fit the concerns of the chapter, these sections include original work on why supervaluationism cannot solve the problem, and on what should be said about contradiction (as opposed to non-contradiction).
