My biggest debt is to my colleague and friend Diana Raffman, whose work inspired the present account, and who continues to give me valuable advice. Thanks also to the members of a graduate seminar on vagueness that we gave together in the spring of 2002: Julian Cole, Sven Walters, Steven James, Jack Arnold, and Michael Jaworski. I am also indebted to the audiences at the ‘Liars and Heaps’ conference held at the University of Connecticut in the autumn of2002, an Arche workshop and subsequent seminar at the University of St Andrews, the Hebrew University Logic Colloquium, and the Philosophy Colloquium at the University of Maryland. I have received valuable feedback from Carl Posy, Mark Sainsbury, Crispin Wright, Agustin Rayo, Patrick Greenough, Delia Graff, Barbara Scholz, Tim Williamson, Neil Cooper, Roy Cook, Rosanna Keefe, Brian Weatherson, Graham Priest, Michael Morreau, and Georges Rey.Read More
