Title: Greg Restall (Melbourne)
Title:

Proofs and what they're good for

Abstract:

I present a new account of the nature of proof, with the aim of explaining  
how proof could actually play the role in reasoning that it does, and  
answering some long-standing puzzles about the nature of proof, including  
(1) how it is that a proof transmits warrant (2) Lewis Carroll's dilemma  
concerning Achilles and the Tortoise and the coherence of questioning basic  
proof rules like modus ponens, and (3) how we can avoid logical omniscience  
without committing ourselves to inconsistency.
