Abstract

This part, like all others in this book, consists of a mix of classic papers that have defined the area and modern ones illustrating important current issues. These texts provide rich fare, and they defy simple labels summarizing their content. Moreover, a look at the list of authors reveals a mixture of different academic cultures, from philosophy to computer science. One might also add that the texts do not all agree: they span a landscape with many positions and perspectives.
