Book Synopsis The Reasonable Person by : Steven R. Sedberry
Download or read book The Reasonable Person written by Steven R. Sedberry and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-06-01 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever felt like you were from the wrong side of the spiritual tracks? You see people on Sundays, heading to church, impeccably dressed and coiffed. Their lives seem perfect. These people seem so different from you. Perhaps you think that you aren't good enough for God. Your life's road has been paved with all kinds of potholes, and you've wrecked the car a number of times. Christianity seems like a country club and you aren't a member. You know that there is a God, somewhere. You observe the world around you and know that it can't all be explained by random biological processes. But the religious structure created by modern day Christianity has impeded your search. Christians explain all of it with Christianspeak, the strange terminology that only Christians can understand. The Reasonable Person- Due Process of Law, Logic and Faith was written for people who have that spiritual itch—the feeling deep in your hearts that there must be something more. The author, Steven Sedberry, examines the claims of Christianity using many of the same analytical tools used in law practice. In The Reasonable Person, he demystifies Christian jargon, and provides a step-by-step guide to the logic behind and practice of Christian faith. The good news is that you are good enough for God. This book will help you to understand why.
Book Synopsis Forever Undecided by : Raymond M. Smullyan
Download or read book Forever Undecided written by Raymond M. Smullyan and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2012-07-04 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forever Undecided is the most challenging yet of Raymond Smullyan’s puzzle collections. It is, at the same time, an introduction—ingenious, instructive, entertaining—to Gödel’s famous theorems. With all the wit and charm that have delighted readers of his previous books, Smullyan transports us once again to that magical island where knights always tell the truth and knaves always lie. Here we meet a new and amazing array of characters, visitors to the island, seeking to determine the natives’ identities. Among them: the census-taker McGregor; a philosophical-logician in search of his flighty bird-wife, Oona; and a regiment of Reasoners (timid ones, normal ones, conceited, modest, and peculiar ones) armed with the rules of propositional logic (if X is true, then so is Y). By following the Reasoners through brain-tingling exercises and adventures—including journeys into the “other possible worlds” of Kripke semantics—even the most illogical of us come to understand Gödel’s two great theorems on incompleteness and undecidability, some of their philosophical and mathematical implications, and why we, like Gödel himself, must remain Forever Undecided!
Book Synopsis The Logic of Entailment and its History by : Edwin Mares
Download or read book The Logic of Entailment and its History written by Edwin Mares and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2024-01-31 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What follows from what, and how do we make statements (whether true or false) about which inferences are correct? In this book, Edwin Mares provides a new philosophical, semantical and historical analysis of and justification for the relevant logic of entailment. In the first half of the book he examines some key ideas in the historical development of the logic of entailment, looking in particular at the notion 'is derivable from' and at how symbolic logic has attempted to capture this notion. In the second half of the book he develops his own theory connecting ideas from the traditions in mathematical logic with some ideas in the philosophy of science. The book's fresh and original perspective on the logic of entailment will be valuable for all who want to know more about the historical and philosophical origins of modern symbolic logic.
Book Synopsis Logic in Practice by : L. Susan Stebbing
Download or read book Logic in Practice written by L. Susan Stebbing and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-04 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1934. This fourth edition originally published 1954., revised by C. W. K. Mundle. "It must be the desire of every reasonable person to know how to justify a contention which is of sufficient importance to be seriously questioned. The explicit formulation of the principles of sound reasoning is the concern of Logic". This book discusses the habit of sound reasoning which is acquired by consciously attending to the logical principles of sound reasoning, in order to apply them to test the soundness of arguments. It isn’t an introduction to logic but it encourages the practice of logic, of deciding whether reasons in argument are sound or unsound. Stress is laid upon the importance of considering language, which is a key instrument of our thinking and is imperfect.
Book Synopsis New Directions in Paraconsistent Logic by : Jean-Yves Beziau
Download or read book New Directions in Paraconsistent Logic written by Jean-Yves Beziau and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-02-08 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book discusses all aspects of paraconsistent logic, including the latest findings, and its various systems. It includes papers by leading international researchers, which address the subject in many different ways: development of abstract paraconsistent systems and new theorems about them; studies of the connections between these systems and other non-classical logics, such as non-monotonic, many-valued, relevant, paracomplete and fuzzy logics; philosophical interpretations of these constructions; and applications to other sciences, in particular quantum physics and mathematics. Reasoning with contradictions is the challenge of paraconsistent logic. The book will be of interest to graduate students and researchers working in mathematical logic, computer science, philosophical logic, linguistics and physics.

Book Synopsis Action, Meaning, and Argument in Eric Weil's Logic of Philosophy by : Sequoya Yiaueki
Download or read book Action, Meaning, and Argument in Eric Weil's Logic of Philosophy written by Sequoya Yiaueki and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-04-12 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume investigates Eric Weil’s innovative conceptualization of the place of violence in the philosophical tradition with a focus on violence’s relationship to language and to discourse. Weil presents violence as the central philosophical problem. According to this reading, the western philosophical tradition commonly conceptualizes violence as an expression of error or as a consequence of the weakness of will. However, by doing so, it misses something essential about the role that violence plays in our conceptual development as well as the place violence holds in our discursive practices. The author draws comparisons between Weil’s work and that of Robert Brandom. Brandom’s inferentialism creates a sophisticated program at the junction of pragmatics and semantics, philosophy of language, logic, and philosophy of mind. The monograph builds on these insights in order to show how an inferentialist reading of Eric Weil is fruitful for both Weilian studies and for inferentialism. This volume will notably be of interest to scholars in philosophy, argumentation theory, and communication studies.
Book Synopsis The Logic of Autonomy by : Jan-R Sieckmann
Download or read book The Logic of Autonomy written by Jan-R Sieckmann and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-11-13 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autonomy is the central idea of modern practical philosophy. Understood as self-legislation, autonomy seems to require that the validity of norms depends on recognition, namely, that their addressees, being autonomous agents, recognise these norms to be valid. But how can one be bound by norms whose validity depends on their being recognised as valid by their addressees? The questions of how autonomous morality and, on this basis, the authoritative character of law can be understood, present persistent puzzles that have been widely discussed, but still await a satisfactory solution. This book presents an analysis of the idea of autonomy as self-legislation and its consequences for law and morality. It links the idea of autonomy with the idea of the balancing of normative arguments, develops a notion of normative arguments as distinct from normative judgements and statements and explains claims to correctness and objectivity that are found in normative discourse. Thus, a 'logic of autonomy' emerges, and it is pervasive in normative reasoning. It connects theses regarding the logic of norms, the structure of balancing, human and fundamental rights, legal validity, legal interpretation, and the relations among legal systems, offering a theory of central elements of normative argumentation, a theory that is undergirded by the mutual relations that exist between and among its parts as well as through the relations that it bears to other theories. Moreover, it offers an alternative to Kantian notions of autonomy and provides solutions to problems that other theories have failed to master.

Book Synopsis Logic for Justice by : Isaac Wilhelm
Download or read book Logic for Justice written by Isaac Wilhelm and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-09-21 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An introductory textbook, Logic for Justice covers, in full detail, the language and semantics of both propositional logic and first-order logic. It motivates the study of those logical systems by drawing on social and political issues. Basically, Logic for Justice frames propositional logic and first-order logic as two theories of the distinction between good arguments and bad arguments. And the book explains why, for the purposes of social justice and political reform, we need theories of that distinction. In addition, Logic for Justice is extremely lucid, thorough, and clear. It explains, and motivates, many different features of the formalism of propositional logic and first-order logic, always connecting those features back to real-world issues. Key Features Connects the study of logic to real-world social and political issues, drawing in students who might not otherwise be attracted to the subject. Offers extremely clear and thorough presentations of technical material, allowing students to learn directly from the book without having to rely on instructor explanations. Carefully explains the value of arguing well throughout one’s life, with several discussions about how to argue and how arguments – when done with care – can be helpful personally. Includes examples that appear throughout the entire book, allowing students to see how the ideas presented in the book build on each other. Provides a large and diverse set of problems for each chapter. Teaches logic by connecting formal languages to natural languages with which students are already familiar, making it much easier for students to learn how logic works.
