ISBN: 9780809325016 / Angielski / Miękka / 213 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In "Defining Reality, "Edward Schiappa argues that definitional disputes should be treated less as philosophical questions of is " "and more as sociopolitical questions of ought. Instead of asking What is X? he advocates that definitions be considered as proposals for shared knowledge and institutional norms, as in What should count as X in context Y, given our needs and interests? Covering a broad scope of argument in rhetorical theory, as well as in legal, medical, scientific, and environmental debates, Schiappa shows the act of defining to be a specialized and learned behavior, and...

Hegel's Logic: Between Dialectic and History
ISBN: 9780810114265 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This text presents an analysis of Hegel's most challenging work, Science of Logic. Although earlier commentators on the Logic have considered standard analytical philosophy - and with it modern logic - in opposition to Hegel, Clark Butler views it as a legitimate approach in terms of which Hegel needs to be understood. This interpretation allows him to address the rigour of Hegel's thought on several levels as at once an exercise in purely conceptual redefinition and a full-bodied work in metaphysical ontology and even theology. The result is an account of the Logic intelligible to both...

Frege Explained
ISBN: 9780812694604 / Angielski / Miękka / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. What is the number one? How can we be sure that 2+2=4? These apparently ssimple questions have perplexed philosophers for thousands of years, but discussion of them was transformed by the German philosopher Gottlob Frege (1848-1925).
Frege (pronounced Fray-guh)believed that arithmetic and all mathematics are derived from logic, and to prove this he developed a completely new approach to logic and numbers. Joan Weiner presents a very clear outline of Frege's life and ideas, showing how his thinking evolved through successive books and articles. What is the number one? How can we be sure that 2+2=4?

Available for the first time in 20 years, here is the Rudolf Carnap's famous "principle of tolerance" by which everyone is free to mix and match the rules of language and logic.

Logic and Language: Indian Philosophy
ISBN: 9780815336105 / Angielski / Twarda / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume is concerned with those parts of Indian pramana theory that Western philosophers would count as logic and philosophy of language. Indian philosophers and linguists were much concerned with philosophical issues having to do with language, especially with theories of meaning, while the Indian logicians developed both a formalized canonical inference schema and a theory of fallacies. The logic of the standard Indian inferential model is deductive, but the premises are arrived at inductively. The later Navya-Nyaya logicians also went on to develop a powerful technical language. This...

Formal Logic: A Philosophical Approach
ISBN: 9780822958475 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Many texts on logic are written with a mathematical emphasis, and focus primarily on the development of a formal apparatus and associated techniques. In other, more philosophical texts, the topic is often presented as an indulgent collection of musings on issues for which technical solutions have long since been devised. What has been missing until now is an attempt to unite the motives underlying both approaches. Paul Hoyningen-Huene s "Formal Logic" seeks to find a balance between the necessity of formal considerations and the importance of full reflection and explanation about the...

Dewey's Logical Theory
ISBN: 9780826513946 / Angielski / Miękka / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Despite the resurgence of interest in the philosophy of John Dewey, his work on logical theory has received relatively little attention. Ironically, Dewey's logic was his -first and last love.- The essays in this collection pay tribute to that love by addressing Dewey's philosophy of logic, from his work at the beginning of the twentieth century to the culmination of his logical thought in the 1938 volume, Logic: The Theory of Inquiry. All the essays are original to this volume and are written by leading Dewey scholars. Ranging from discussions of propositional theory to logic's social...
