This book studies the Talmudic approach to Delegation. We develop logical models for the basic Talmudic views of delegation. The Talmudic approaches to the relationships between the Principal and his Agent/Delegate are fundamentally very logical, and deal with questions like chains of delegations, transfer of power, cancellations, death, irresponsible behaviour, change of the terms of delegation, and much more. We highlight the differences between the Talmudic approach and the view of delegation in modern legal systems.

This book returns to the discussion in volume 1 on analogy and induction, and analyses their substance. The first part distinguishes between two kinds of logic: One kind based on union of the common features, and the other kind based on synthesis of different features. In the second part of the book we propose a formal scheme for synthesis of concepts. The third part analyses various mechanisms for kidushin and kinyan, which form a mathematical group.

Plato's theory of forms and Aristotle's Hylomorphism form a foundational bifurcation at the source of western philosophy. From a Jurisprudential and Talmudic point of view, assessing the status of objects and actions obligatory in Halacha can be clarified when assessed through this dual view of obligations to abstract ideal forms or concrete earthly objects. The Talmudic mode of analysing Halachic obligations suggests an approach of abstraction that though not fully Platonic, can share some basic logical modes with it.

This volume deals with issues already discussed in volumes eight and nine: Analysis and Synthesis of concepts. So far we have assumed binary logic, i.e., either something is true or it is false. Now we leave this dichotomous approach, and discover that an extension to multi-valued logic (fuzzy logic) and quantum states helps to solve problems left unsolved in the dichotomous approach.
