Initially proposed as rivals of classical logic, alternative logics have become increasingly important in sciences such as quantum physics, computer science, and artificial intelligence. The contributions collected in this volume address and explore the question whether the usage of logic in the sciences, especially in modern physics, requires a deviation from classical mathematical logic. The articles in the first part of the book set the scene by describing the context and the dilemma when applying logic in science. In part II the authors offer several logics that deviate in different...

Providing insights into the interrelation between scientific and religious belief, this work covers features of belief in general and discusses distinctive properties between belief, knowledge and acceptance. These properties are considered in relation and comparison to religious belief."

The task of the book is not to give a survey of the main theories on truth found in the literature. There are several books available which do this: The one of David for Deflationist (and Disquotational) Theories of Truth; that of Chapuis for Revision Theories of Truth; that of Kirkham for Correspondence Theories and several others; that ofRescher for Coherence Theories of Truth. Moreover the book is not an analy sis just of Tar ski's theory, like that of Moreno or the respective chapters in Kirkham, though Tarski's theory plays an important role in the whole work presented. The task of the...

Beginnend mit dem Kosmos als Forderer und Zerstorer des Lebens fahrt die Betrachtung mit Biologie (Genetic Load) und einer Kritik am sogenannten Bosen (Konrad Lorenz) fort. Weitere Themen sind das Leiden der Kreatur einerseits und die positive Seite des Schmerzes fur das Lernen und Uberleben andererseits. Die philosophischen und theologischen Fragen werden eingeleitet durch eine logische Analyse der verschiedenen Arten...
