Il est notamment l'auteur de Les deux dogmes de l'empirisme, article célèbre de 1951 qui critique la distinction entre analytique et synthétique et de Le Mot et la Chose en 1960 où il propose sa thèse de l'indétermination de la traduction radicale et une critique du concept de « signification ». Comme l'écrit Diego Marconi, « la pensée de Quine a été un des facteurs qui ont déterminé lévolution du courant principal de la philosophie anglo-saxonne depuis le néo-positivisme jusquà lample et variée koiné, désignée sous le nom de ""philosophie analytique"" ». En logique mathématique il est principalement connu pour avoir produit une théorie des ensembles alternative appelée New Foundations." couverture à peine frottée et tres legerement jaunie, intérieur propre, papier à peine jauni, quelques rousseurs sur la dernière page (catalogue de la collection) - grand format de l'édition originale en français (1975)‎

‎An excellent presentation copy of this scarce first edition of the great logician's first book, which is the published version of his doctoral thesis, hailed by Whitehead as a landmark in the history of symbolic logic.Inscribed by Quine ""To F. Gomes Cassidy, historian of/ languages, from Van Quine, manu-/ facturer of one. Mathematical/ truth is linguistic convention,/ and logic is the [four Chinese characters]"".Frederic Gomez Cassidy (1907-2000) was a great capacity within wold language scholarship and a close friend of Quine, whom he had known since school and been to Oberlin College with. He was a talented linguist specialized in Early English, Creoles, Lexicography, and American language, who is now primarily famous for his lately begun monumental project, the ""Dictionary of American Regional English"" (known as DARE). Cassisy was born in Jamaica to a Canadian father and a Jamaican mother and grew up hearing their varieties of standard British English as well as the Cleole variety of the Black majority. When Cassidy was eleven years old, the whole family moved to Ohio. ""Here the young Jamaican was introduced to yet another variety of English and was dismayed to learn that it was he who sounded ""funny."" But that distinction was to have a significant benefit. It piqued the curiosity of a classmate who sought to know and befriend the boy who looked, acted, and sounded so different. That classmate was Willard Van Orman (""Van"") Quine, later to become one of America's most distinguished philosophers. The friendship he and Fred began as boys was to last their lifetimes, nourished by shared experiences at Oberlin College, regular correspondence through the decades, and frequent summer hiking trips."" (Memorial Resolution of the Faculty of the University of Wisconsin-Madison on the Death of Professor Emeritus Frederic Gomes Cassidy). The time at Oberlin College was of specific joy to him, and it was here he came to explore his interest in languages, philosophy, and science. He obtained his BA in 1930 and his MA, also at Oberlin, in 1932, and in 1938 he was given his PhD from the University of Michigan. Quine graduated from Oberlin College in 1930. He then won a scholarship to study for his doctorate at Harvard University, where he wrote the important thesis that was to constitute his first book. Quine's supervisor at Harvard was Alfred North Whitehead, who has also written the Foreword to his first book and who introduced him to Bertrand Russell, who visited Harvard during this time. From then on, Quine kept an ongoing correspondence with Russell. Quine finished his doctorate in two years and was awarded his Ph.D. in philosophy from Harvard in 1932. After that he received a travelling fellowship, which he used to travel to Vienna, where he got acquainted with the members of the Vienna Circle. During his travels he also met Gödel and Ayer. In Warsaw he spent six weeks with Tarski, and in Prague he studied under Carnap, who greatly inspired him. After his year of travelling, he returned to Harvard, where he published the present version of his doctoral dissertation, his first book.""In this book Dr. Quine has effected an extension of the scope of Symbolic Logic. The advance is more than an improvement in symbols. It extends to fundamental notions. He has introduced a generality adequate to the complexity of the subject matter"" and the symbolism embodies the generality of its meaning. I have no hesitation in stating by belief that Dr. Quine's book constitutes a landmark in the history of the subject."" So Whitehead writes in his Foreword (p. (IX) ). The logic that Quine takes into consideration is that of Russel and Whitehead's ""Principia Mathematica"", and when Whitehead towards the end of the Foreword states that ""Dr. Quine does not touch upon the relationship of Logic to Metahysics. He keeps strictly within the boundaries of his subject. But - if in conclusion I may venture beyond these limits - the reformation of Logic has an essential reference to Metaphysics. For Logic prescribes the shapes of metaphysical thought"" (p. X), the metaphysics he is talking about is nominalism. For Russell and Whitehead, Quine's work represented an unusual illustration of their own logic.The work was also under much influence of the Polish logicians, and as Whitehead concludes in his Foreword, ""it is interesting to note the influence of of the work of Professor H. M. Scheffer, and of the great school of Polish mathematicians. There is continuity in the progress of ordered knowledge."" (P. X).‎

‎First editions, off-prints, of all four papers, which together constitute the first printed results of radiocarbon dating, based on samples gathered by Libby and his co-workers. It was due to this discovery, which revolutionized the practice of archaeology and other branches of science (e.g. geology, geophysics, etc.), that Libby received the Nobel Prize in 1960. Willard F. Libby (1908-80) was a skilled chemist who is remembered today for having developed the process of carbon-14 dating, which is now of the utmost importance to several branches of science. Libby studied chemistry at Berkeley, California, from where he obtained his doctorate in 1933" here he stayed on as, first instructor and then, associate professor. In 1941 he was recruited into the Manhattan Project. After the war he became professor at the University of Chicago, at the Institute for Nuclear Studies. It was here that he made his seminal discovery, namely that a hitherto rarely noticed isotope of carbon, that called carbon-14, was absorbed by plants through photosynthesis and that after a plant died, it would no longer absorb the carbon-14, causing its remains to gradually lose the carbon-14 that it had accumulated through radioactive decay. Thus, by measuring how much carbon-14 was left in the dead plant material, it would be possible to determine when it died. Libby now developed a method for measuring the carbon-14 content, and he began testing his technique (also on things, the dates of which were already known) and found that it applied to all locations everywhere.The isotope carbon-14 had first been isolated in 1940 by two of Libby's students while working on the atomic bomb project. It had been shown that carbon 14 was continually being formed by cosmic rays colliding with atmospheric nitrogen. Libby surmised that traces should always be found in air's carbon dioxide, and that carbon 14 could be detected by modern devices in all products of life such as archaeology, geology, geophysics, and other branches of science. It was in 1950 that he reduced the small amount of ancient wood to pure carbon, and in measuring its radioactivity, he deduced its age. After the announcement of this result, scientists from around the worlds presented him with samples of items to date. Naturally, Libby's discovery caused general excitement within scientific circles archaeologists, geologists etc. now only needed something organic (e.g. wood, plant remains, charcoal etc.) to possibly date a find. The method is surprisingly accurate and only when dating things more than 10.000 years old, does it become less accurate. Libby received the Nobel Prize in 1960 for his discovery of methods to use carbon 14.‎

‎Methods of Logic.‎

‎London, Routledge & Kegan Paul (1952). 8vo. Original full cloth. Minor wear to extremities, otherwise fine and clean copy.. XVII, (5), 264 pp.‎

‎The book which resulted from the advanced undergraduate course in logic that the important analytic philosopher Willard Van Orman Quine (1908-2000) taught from the end of World War II until his retirement in 1978 at Havard University. Technically rather dated, it still contains much philosophical and linguistic insight, being a prime example of Quine's lucid thought.‎
