"In his pioneering book Knowledge and Belief (1962) Hintikka laid the foundations of what is now known as epistemic logic by formalizing certain epistemological principles for the basic relations 'a knows that p' and 'a believes that p' and by developing a semantic framework for the logical interpretation of these concepts" (Wolfgang Lenzen, Knowledge, Belief, and Probability; please ask for source). "In the early 1960's Hintikka published his seminal work on the logic of knowledge and belief. Since then, epistemic and doxastic logics have grown into a mature discipline with many important applications in philosophy, computer science, game theory, economics and linguistics to mention of few areas of application" (please ask for source). "One of the earliest and most well-known treatments of reasoning about knowledge and belief is the philosophical work of Hintikka in the 1960s" (Maria Fasli, Reasoning about Knowledge and Belief: A Syntactical Treatment; please ask for source). "Use of possible worlds for dealing with knowledge was introduced by Hintikka in 1962 in a book called Knowledge and Belief: an introduction to the two notions" (please ask for source).

Boston University, "Jaako Hintikka Professor of Philosophy Emeritus (1929-2015)". Slater 415. Hintikka's classic book on the logic of knowledge and belief, a foundational work in epistemic logic. Hintikka made several crucial contributions to the philosophy of language, metaphysics, and of course, epistemology. He is remembered especially for his work in possible-worlds semantics. This book is particularly difficult to find in the first edition, in collectible condition. Pageblock wavy at its top edge, the first few pages with very light annotation; jacket has toning to its spine panel and folds, and two small discolorations to its front panel.

Ithaca, New York, Cornell University Press, (1967). 8vo. Orig. full blue cloth w. blue lettering to spine and front board. Original blue dust-jacket w. red lettering. Dust-jacket w. a long tear to lower back hinge, crossing spine. A few tears and general wear. Price-clipped. Internally very nice and clean. X, 179 pp. First edition, third printing of Hintikka's seminal main work, which also constitutes the main work of contemporary epistemic logic.The Finnish born philosopher and logician, Jaakko Hintikka (born 1929), Professor of Philosophy at the University of Boston, is generally accepted as the founder of formal epistemic logic and of game semantics for logic. He has contributed seminally to the fields of philosophical and mathematical logic, philosophy of mathematics and science, language theory and epistemology. Independently of Evert Willem Beth he discovered the semantic tableau, and he is famous for his work on game semantics and logical quantifiers. In 2005 Hintakka was awarded the Schock Prize in logic and philosophy, the philosophical equivalent to the Nobel prize, "for his pioneering contributions to the logical analysis of modal concepts, IN PARTICULAR THE CONCEPTS OF KNOWLEDGE AND BELIEF ". The first edition of this seminal work, which has founded contemporary epistemic logic, appeared in 1962 and is very difficult to find. The work was reprinted three times between 1962 and 1969, but after that the work was only printed again in 2005. The second issue appeared in 1964 and the third in 1967."In 1962 Jaakko Hintikka published "Knowledge and Belief: An Introduction to the Logic of the Two Notions" with Cornell University Press. Almost every paper or a book on epistemic and doxastic logic that has appeared since then has referred to this seminal work. Although many philosophers working in logic, epistemology, game-theory, economics, computer science and linguistics mention the book, it is very likely that most have never literally had their hands on it, much less owned a copy. After a fourth printing in 1969, Knowledge and Belief went out of print and as many of us have found to our dismay, it has become increasingly difficult to find used copies at our local shops or online. It is our pleasure to provide the interdisciplinary community with this reprint edition of Knowledge and Belief." (Abstract of the re-issue edition, Prepared by Vincent F. Hendricks & John Symons, King's College Publications, 2005).In this breakthrough work, Hintikka sets out to understand and explain the logical behavior of the two fundamental epistemological notions, Knowledge and belief. "The word "logic" which occurs in the subtitle of this work is to be taken seriously. My first aim is to formulate and to defend explicit criteria of consistency for certain sets of statements - criteria which, it is hoped, will be comparable with the criteria of consistency studied in the established branches of logic. What the statements in question are like is also indicated in the title [.]" (Chapter One, Prolegomena, p.3)."Knowledge and Belief" has been extremely influential from the time of its appearance and continues to be so to this day, also due to the fact that epistemic logic has greatly influenced the fields of game theory, artificial intelligence and distributed computing.
