The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

The Meaning of ‘Most’: Semantics, Numerosity and Psychology (2009, background): “3 For discussion, see Wright (1983), Boolos (1998), and the essays in Demopolous (1994).”
The nature of Epistemic Space (2011, background): “I think it is much more straightforward to set aside proper classes, holding (with Boolos 1998, Shapiro 1993, and others) that all collections are sets, and drawing the morals that one would have to draw at the level of collections in any case at the level of sets.”
A completeness theorem for unrestricted first- order languages (2003, background): “The possibility of quantifying over everything is also defended in Boolos (1998b), McGee (2000), Williamson (1999), Rayo (2003) and Williamson (forthcoming).”
Interface transparency and the psychosemantics of most (2011, background): “In (1a), it signifies set-subtraction: ‘Y ) X’ is equivalent to ‘{x: (x ̨ Y) & ~(x ̨ X)}’—though, following Boolos (1998), one can eschew the appeal to sets and speak of the ‘Ys minus any Xs’.”
