For those who like the feel of physical books in their hands...
Tait's "Frege vs. Cantor and Dedkind: on the concept of number" which Dean
Buckner has recommended to us and given a WWWeb reference for is also in
   "Early Analytic Philosophy: Frege, Russell, Wittgenstein"
edited by W.W. Tait, Open Court Pub. Co., 1997, ISBN 0-8126-9343-4 (cloth)
and ISBN 0-8126-9344-2 (paperback).  It's a festsschrifft for Leonard
Linsky, and contains a number of articles that may be of interest to the
FoM community in its PHILOSOPHICAL moods (e.g. Tyler Burge on Frege's
epistemology of abstract entities, Bernard Linsky on the status of
Russell's Axiom of Reducibility), though there doesn't seem to be much in
it on the MATHEMATICAL side of work on foundations.
