This is a special case of a more general\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e question. For instance, an algebraist might write a book entitled \"Algebra\", which\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e is about algebras. Though many mathematicians are not aware of it, logic today\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e most decidedly has its plural aspect. Indeed, it always did. Classical logic, which\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e mathematicians often tend to identify with the entirety of logic, was in place\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e roughly by the beginning of the twentieth century. Since then a wide range of\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e so-called non-classical logics have been developed. But indeed, before the creation\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e of classical logic, there were multiple versions of logic, some of them more-or-less\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e formalized. The current growing interest in medieval and ancient European and\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Asian logics has brought much of this back to modern awareness. Perhaps a later\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e volume in this series will look at the history from a contemporary viewpoint. But\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e that is not our task here.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the second volume in a series called Landscapes in Logic. The intention\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e of the series is to present reports illustrating the interplay between contemporary\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e work in logic and mainstream mathematics. Of course this is both vague and\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e overly ambitious, and must result in heterogeneous collections. The first volume\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e in the series, Contemporary Logic and Computing, appeared in 2020. The\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e contents divided plausibly into topics from contemporary logic, and from contemporary\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e computing. The present volume is more diverse, and includes articles\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e about both classical and non-classical logics, sometimes from the semantic side\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e and sometimes from the proof-theoretic side. Some articles are primarily technical, \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e often algebraic, while others are more philosophical in nature. Many fit into\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e multiple categories. This multiplicity should not be seen as a defect. The papers\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e here do not just explore logics house by house, but say something about their\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e general neighborhoods as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 858\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.7 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 06, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47337113452793,"sku":"9781848903500","price":47.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/TmhaVmcwK0FMbm5wSndRM3NoV04vdz09.webp?v=1769675023","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/selected-topics-from-contemporary-logics-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
