‎First edition, presentation-copy, of Quine's main work, in which he introduces the notorious indeterminacy of translation thesis. This is the most philosophical of all of Quine's works, and it has greatly affected the development of logic, philosophy of language and mathematics, and analytic philosophy in general.The presentation-inscription to front free end-paper reads as thus: ""To Rod Firth/ with best regards./ Van"". Roderick Firth was Quine's colleague as professor of philosophy at Harvard. He was chairman of the philosophy department at Harvard from 1957 until 1963. He earned a doctorate at Harvard in 1943, joined the faculty in 1953 and became Alford Professor of Natural Religion, Moral Philosophy and Civil Polity in 1962.It is in his ""Word and Object"" that Quine propounds his ""indeterminacy of translation""-thesis, which became central in the development of philosophy of language. ""Language is a social art. In acquiring it we have to depend on intersubjectively available cues such as to what to say and when. Hence there is no justification for collating linguistic meanings, unless in terms of men's dispositions to respond overtly to socially observable stimulations."" (Preface p. IX).Quine bases his main thesis on his consideration of the linguist, who attempts to translate a hitherto unknown language. There are different methods that the linguist could apply as to the breaking down of sentences and distribution of function among the words. Quine reaches the conclusion that if any hypothesis of translation needs to be defended, this can only be by appeal to context, by determining what other sentences the language user would utter in the language that is unknown to the linguist. But even here the indeterminacy of translation sets in, because, according to Quine, any hypothesis can be defended, if only enough other hypotheses of other parts of the language are adopted. This indeterminacy of language also applies to the known languages, and even one's own, and thus Quine implies that there are no such entities as ""meanings"" of right and wrong. Quine thus denies any absolute standards in translating one language into another, but he admits that there are good and bad translation, -this is just not philosophically or logically relevant. Translation can be inconsistent with behavioral evidence, however and thus Quine propounds his pragmatic view of translation. ""Neurath has likened science to a boat, which, if we are to rebuild it, we must rebuild plank by plank while staying afloat in it. The philosopher and the scientist are in the same boat. If we improve our understanding of ordinary talk of physical things, it will not be by reducing that talk to a more familiar idiom"" there is none. It will be by clarifying the connections, causal or otherwise, between ordinary talk of physical things and various further matters which in turn we grasp with the help of ordinary talk of physical things."" (P. 3 - 9).‎

‎First printing of these papers which include Kleene's milestone paper in which Kleene's O (Ordial numbers), a recursive function, is introduced. In set theory and computability theory, Kleene's is a canonical subset of the natural numbers when regarded as ordinal notations.""In the seventeenth century, Leibniz envisaged a universal language that would allow one to reduce mathematical proofs to simple computations. Then, during the nineteenth century, llgicians such as Charles Babbage, Boole, Frege and Peano tried to formalize mathematical reasoning by an ""algebraization"" of logic. Finally, [...] Gödel, Church and Stephen Kleene introduced the notion of recursive functions. (The Princeston Companion to Mathematics. P. 111).‎

‎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.‎

‎First printing of Quine and Goodman's important paper in which they set themself the ambitious task of rephrasing all scientific theories in a language with an ontology consisting of objects in space-time. They state that: ""We do not believe in abstract entities. No one supposes that abstract entities - classes, relations, properties, etc. - exists in space-time"" but we mean more than this. We renounce them altogether. We cannot use variables that call for abstract objects as value"". (From the introduction to the present paper). ‎
