Philosophical work

[edit]

Priest is known for his defence ofdialetheism, his in-depth analyses of thelogical paradoxes (holding the thesis that there is a uniform treatment for many well-known paradoxes, such as the semantic, set-theoretic andliar paradoxes), and his many writings related toparaconsistent and othernon-classical logics. In these he draws on the history of philosophy, includingAsian philosophy.

Priest, a long-time resident of Australia, now residing in New York City, is the author of numerous books (most notably the textbookAn Introduction to Non-Classical Logic), and has published articles in nearly every major philosophical and logical journal.
