It argues that a Russellian realist bundle theory is indeed the best explanation of similarities and differences that we observe around us thanks to the ontological economy such a theory provides and its strength and completeness as a theory of the nature of reality. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTackling the major criticisms levelled against the realist bundle theory - the problem of individuation, the problem of necessity, and the problem of analyticity - this study presents and defends a tenable Russellian bundle theory which can answer the objections. \u003ci\u003eBertrand Russell's Bundle Theory of Particulars\u003c\/i\u003e is a novel and significant contribution to Russell scholarship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9781472512666\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":40595346915534,"sku":"9781472512666","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/7029\/7806\/products\/getimage_10b54703-59cc-401e-99d0-8827b39578a9.jpg?v=1637829049","url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9781472512666","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
