Unruly Words: A Study of Vague Language
Raffman, Diana (Professor of Philosophy and Director of Graduate Studies, Professor of Philosophy and Director of Graduate Studies, University of Toronto)
In Unruly Words, Diana Raffman advances a new theory of vagueness which, unlike previous accounts, is genuinely semantic while preserving bivalence. According to this new approach, called the multiple range theory, vagueness consists essentially in a term's being applicable in multiple arbitrarily different, but equally competent, ways, even when contextual factors are fixed.
