Course Description:
Much of the most exciting work done in logic in the last forty years has been in the area of non-classical logics-that is, logical systems other than standard propositional and predicate logic. Many of these systems are extensions of classical logic, while others are rivals to it. In this course we will look at several of the most innovative systems of non-classical logic, including Many-valued Logics, Fuzzy Logic and Intuitionist Logic. In each case, we will examine the philosophical motivations behind the new system as well as the modifications to classical logic they entail. |
