Hello. I am reading a book by the author W V O Quine and have trouble understanding parts of it. And hence would like to know the prerequisites for reading the book. The book is about philosophy but makes use of mathematical logic. I needed advice regarding what books I should read before reading that book.
Could such a query be asked in the Philosophy forum ?
The book doesn't seem to be a science book else I would have asked in Science book discussion.
Which is the appropriate sub-forum for asking such advice ?
The book is called "From a Logical Point of View - 9 Logico Philosophical essays"
