Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

Introducing Logic follows the historical development of this intriguing subject, explaining its symbols and methods, exploring complex philosophical issues and intricate mathematics with the help of Bill Mayblin's insightful artwork. Are computers and digital technology just another case of logic in action? What are the difficulties and limitations of logical systems? Logic is, too, a hidden part of our everyday lives - from the "fuzzy logic" used by computer spellcheckers to what we expect as the norms of journalistic debate. Introducing Logic brings a discipline with a reputation for impenetrability to the general reader at last.
