He thought it intuitively clear that the axiom ought to hold, but proof was lacking. Quine is one of the most important American and analytical philosophers of the 20th century. His contributions to analytic philosophy and philosophical logic have been immense.Journal of Symbolic Logic, together with Bulletin of Symbolic Logic and Review of Symbolic Logic, is the official journal of Association for Symbolic Logic.
