Tracking Reason: Proof, Consequence, and Truth
ISBN: 9780195370690 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When ordinary people--mathematicians among them--take something to follow (deductively) from something else, they are exposing the backbone of our self-ascribed ability to reason. Jody Azzouni investigates the connection between that ordinary notion of consequence and the formal analogues invented by logicians. One claim of the book is that, despite our apparent intuitive grasp of consequence, we do not introspect rules by which we reason, nor do we grasp the scope and range of the domain, as it were, of our reasoning. This point is illustrated with a close analysis of a paradigmatic case of...

The Logic of Alice: Clear Thinking in Wonderland
ISBN: 9781591026754 / Angielski / Miękka / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Many commentaries have been devoted to Lewis Carroll s masterpiece, Alice s Adventures in Wonderland. The interpretations range from Freudian analysis to speculations about the real-life people who may have inspired the animal characters.
In this unique approach to interpreting Alice, the fruit of ten years of research, Dr. Bernard M. Patten shows that Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, aka Lewis Carroll, fused his passion for logic, mathematics, and games with his love of words and nonsense stories to produce a multifaceted, intricately structured work of literature. Patten provides... Many commentaries have been devoted to Lewis Carroll s masterpiece, Alice s Adventures in Wonderland. The interpretations range from Freudian a...

Saving Truth from Paradox
ISBN: 9780199230754 / Angielski / Twarda / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Saving Truth from Paradox is an ambitious investigation into paradoxes of truth and related issues, with occasional forays into notions such as vagueness, the nature of validity, and the G: odel incompleteness theorems. Hartry Field presents a new approach to the paradoxes and provides a systematic and detailed account of the main competing approaches.
Part One examines Tarski's, Kripke's, and Lukasiewicz's theories of truth, and discusses validity and soundness, and vagueness. Part Two considers a wide range of attempts to resolve the paradoxes within classical logic. In Part Three Field...

New Essays on the Knowability Paradox
ISBN: 9780199285495 / Angielski / Twarda / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In 1945 Alonzo Church issued a pair of referee reports in which he anonymously conveyed to Frederic Fitch a surprising proof showing that wherever there is (empirical) ignorance there is also logically unknowable truth. Fitch published this and a generalization of the result in 1963. Ever since, philosophers have been attempting to understand the significance and address the counter-intuitiveness of this, the so-called paradox of knowability. This collection assembles Church's referee reports, Fitch's 1963 paper, and nineteen new papers on the knowability paradox. The contributors include...

Consciousness : How Matter Becomes Imagination
ISBN: 9780140281477 / Angielski / Miękka Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Everyone knows what consciousness is: it is what abandons you every evening when you fall asleep and reappears the next morning when you wake up. But why should the physical events occurring inside certain parts of our brain give rise to the phantasmagoric world of conscious experience - a world that contains everything we feel, know, and are? In this short non-technical text, Edelman and Tononi reveal exactly how the vast panorama of consciousness arises.

It is state-of-the-art Aristotle: it employs the most recent philological, philosophical, and logical advances which since the 1970 s at least have rendered previous translations and commentaries obsolete. The translation is the first to take account of the recent epistemically orientated natural-deduction approach, which restores Aristotle s reputation as a consummate logician and reveals much more of Aristotle s method than previous approaches. Every page of Robin Smith s commentary shows extensive learning, taste, imagination, and skill. . . ....
