Deflating Existential Commitment: A Case for Nominalism
Azzouni, Jody (Professor of Philosophy, Professor of Philosophy, Tufts University)
If we take mathematical statements to be true, then must we also believe in the existence of invisible mathematical objects, accessible only by the power of thought? Jody Azzouni says we do not have to, and claims that the way to escape such a commitment is to accept - as an essential part of scientific doctrine - true statements which are 'about' objects which don't exist in any real sense.
