Perspectives on Interrogative Models of Inquiry

Edited by C. Başkent

This book explores the two major elements of Hintikka’s model of inquiry: underlying game theoretical motivations and the central role of questioning. The chapters build on the Hintikkan tradition extending Hintikka’s model and present a wide variety of approaches to the philosophy of inquiry from different directions, ranging from erotetic logic to Lakatosian philosophy, from socio-epistemologic approaches to strategic reasoning and mathematical practice.

UPDATE A recent review of the book written by Francesca Poggiolesi appeared in the open access journal Logic and Logical Philosophy.

UPDATE Aldo Antonelli, one of the authors of the volume, sadly passed away so suddenly just before the publication of this volume. And his contribution in this volume turned out to be one of his last publications. We posthumously dedicate the volume to his memory.
