Set theory is an autonomous and sophisticated field of mathematics, enormously successful not only at its continuing development of its historical heritagebutalso atanalyzing mathematicalpropositions castinset-theoretic terms and gauging their consistency strength. But set theory is also distinguished by having begun intertwined with pronounced metaphysical attitudes, and these have even been regarded as crucial by some of its great developers. This has encouraged the exaggeration of crises in foundations and ofmetaphysicaldoctrines ingeneral...
