  • Die Syncategoremata des Wilhelm von Sherwoodby Raina Kirchhoff

    BRILL 2008; US$ 232.00

    In linguistics one usually differentiates between content words and function words. But most people do not know that this differentiation does not have its root in modern times. And also it cannot be found in antiquity in this form. more...

  • Judgement and the Epistemic Foundation of Logicby Maria van der Schaar

    Springer 2012; US$ 99.99

    This compelling reevaluation of the relationship between logic and knowledge affirms the key role that the notion of judgement must play in such a review. The commentary repatriates the concept of judgement in the discussion, banished in recent times by the logical positivism of Wittgenstein, Hilbert and Schlick, and the Platonism of Bolzano. The volume... more...

  • Around the Treeby Fabrice Correia; Andrea Iacona

    Springer 2012; US$ 99.99

    Over the past few years, the tree model of time has been widely employed to deal with issues concerning the semantics of tensed discourse. The thought that has motivated its adoption is that the most plausible way to make sense of indeterminism is to conceive of future possibilities as branches that depart from a common trunk, constituted by the past... more...

  • Acceptable Premisesby James Freeman

    Cambridge University Press 2005; US$ 38.00

    When, if ever, is one justified in accepting the premises of an argument? What is the proper criterion of premise acceptability? Can the criterion be theoretically or philosophically justified? This is the first book to provide a comprehensive theory of premise acceptability. more...

  • Logical Pluralismby Greg Restall; JC Beall

    Clarendon Press 2005; US$ 39.99

    Logical Pluralism presents a challenge to the proponents of alternative logic, and even to classical logicians who find alternative logics interestingly mistaken. In a short book, the authors not only raise deep issues, they also provide neat thumbnail sketches of a range of logics...theirs is a challenge that must be met, and meeting it adequately... more...

  • Agenda Relevance: A Study in Formal Pragmaticsby UNKNOWN AUTHOR

    Elsevier Science 2003; US$ 200.00

    Agenda Relevance is the first volume in the authors' omnibus investigation of the logic of practical reasoning, under the collective title, A Practical Logic of Cognitive Systems. In this highly original approach, practical reasoning is identified as reasoning performed with comparatively few cognitive assets, including resources such as information,... more...

  • Thinking Your Way to Freedomby Susan T. Gardner

    Temple University Press 2008; US$ 47.95

    Thinking Your Way to Freedom is a critical-thinking textbook with a difference. Rather than focusing exclusively on improving college students’ academic achievement, Susan Gardner seeks to dramatically change how students think through issues that are important in their lives beyond school. Gardner created 66 original and entertaining comic... more...

  • A Practical Logic of Cognitive Systemsby Dov M. Gabbay; John Woods

    Elsevier Science 2005; US$ 220.00

    The present work is a continuation of the authors' acclaimed multi-volume A Practical Logic of Cognitive Systems. After having investigated the notion of relevance in their previous volume, Gabbay and Woods now turn to abduction. In this highly original approach, abduction is construed as ignorance-preserving inference, in which conjecture plays a... more...
