Aporetics: Rational Deliberation in the Face of Inconsistency
Nicholas Rescher
The word apory stems from the Greek aporia, meaning impasse or perplexing difficulty. This title defines an apory as a group of individually plausible but collectively incompatible theses. It provides an instructive perspective on the many diverse issues that can arise from imperfect information and cognitive dissonance.
