About The The connection between these two sides of what will be referred to as the Analyticity Principle, can be brie?y explained as follows: by analytic truth one understands in general a sentence whose content is logically true; by logically true one understands moreover truth independent from matters of fact or empirical data, a truth which is therefore established by logical criteria only.. The question-begging topic of this research is therefore that of analyticity, the inspiring problem for which a solution is formulated in the present book

This research is the result of a fruitful connection and provides a sign- cant link between two topics of a logical and philosophical enquiry. If analyticity represents the starting point of this research, the other part of its content is the result of a far more complex question; to represent the notion of Information in the context of logical calculi. It tries to provide a solution to the problem of analyticity: with this expression I understand, on the one hand, the essential nature of analytic truths and, on the other, the related explanation of the analytic nature of logical inference. The connection between these two sides of what will be referred to as the Analyticity Principle, can be brie?y explained as follows: by analytic truth one understands in general a sentence whose content is logically true; by logically true one understands moreover truth independent from matters of fact or empirical data, a truth which is therefore established by logical criteria only. On this basis, it follows that a logical inference represents a purely analytic process, in opposition to its property of being able to produce knowledge, a situation which is exempli?ed by the con?icting - tions of validity and utility. The question-begging topic of this research is therefore that of analyticity, the inspiring problem for which a solution is formulated in the present book.

While the positivists argued for a spontaneous, steady and continuous growth of scientific knowledge the post-positivists make a strong case for a fundamental discontinuity in the development of science which can only be explained by extrascientific factors.

This fourth volume of Logic, Epistemology, and the Unity of Science tackles these problems as part of our consideration of the most fundamental aspects of scientific understanding.

Nature's Principles Traditionally, the problem of the unity of science was intimately connected to the problem of understanding the unity of nature. This volume presents a wide-ranging overview of the contemporary debate and includes some of its foremost participants.One of the most basic problems in the philosophy of science involves determining the extent to which nature is governed by laws.

The principal function of language is to enable speakers to communicate their intentions to others, to respond flexibly in a social context and to act cooperatively in the world.

It will be of interest to graduate students and researchers from philosophy, logic, linguistics, cognitive science and artificial intelligence.

Procedural Semantics for Hyperintensional Logic

Secondly, logical semantics is a field progressing by leaps and bounds, and much has happened since TichÃ½ put out his first and only book in 1988. Firstly, Transparent Intensional Logic is a theory without something like a textbook. Now this is not an actual textbook, if a textbook is a patient introduction garnished with exercises and solutions; nor is it a teach-yourself-in-a-week manual for the uninitiated-but-curious.

These phrases appear to re ect the everyday chaos of our academic pursuits rather than any genuine attempt to clarify the general principles underlying the miscellaneous ways in which logic appears to us.

OndrejMajer,Ahti-VeikkoPietarinen,andTeroTulenheimo 1 Games and logic in philosophy Recent years have witnessed a growing interest in the unifying methodo- gies over what have been perceived as pretty disparate logical âsystemsâ, or else merely an assortment of formal and mathematical âapproachesâ to phi- sophical inquiry. Games: Unifying Logic, Language, and Philosophy. This development has largely been fueled by an increasing dissatisfaction to what has earlier been taken to be a straightforward outcome of âlogical pluralismâ or âmethodological diversityâ.
