Concerning the Solution to the Liar Paradox

I. M. R. Pinheiro
University of Queensland, Australia

Keywords: paradox, liar, Sorites.

In this paper, we analyze the Liar Paradox. We re-write the problem in order to properly include it in the body of Science and prove that the problem is an allurement to show the complexity of the human mind in the same sense that the Sorites Paradox is an allurement to show the complexity of the human verbal expression.
