conditional sentences

• Confusion: A Study in the Theory of Knowledge

If such sentences did have truth values, then the objective conditional probability of such a sentence being true and X's subjective probability that it is true would be meaningful concepts. For those concerned with argument evaluation, especially with arguments from other periods in the history of philosophy or even from other cultures, with having a rigorous way of distinguishing what is problematic in such arguments with appreciating their strong points, we commend Camp's Confusion as well repaying their study.-James B. Freeman, Hunter College of The City University of New York.

• Unfair to Our Justice System

The Sun Journal feature Sept. 3, "Stir-crazy," was biased and emotionally motivated. Paragraphs were devoted to speculation about how Daniel Jackson feels victimized, and crimes like "reckless conduct with a firearm" were barely mentioned. Sentences such as "shortly after this conditional release, Jackson came to Maine where his mother and other family live. The move violated his parole," are just a confusing way of saying Jackson violated the clear terms of his parole. Terrorizing, reckless conduct with a firearm, attempted escape, domestic assault, yelling obscenities - I had to dig to find little mentions of those facts. But "refuse to be a part of the circle", "I write poetry," "want to be there for my family," "make it better for our children" - there were many of those touching qu...
