Book excerpt: In writing this book, our goal was to produce a text suitable for a first course in mathematical logic more attuned than the traditional textbooks to the recent dramatic growth in the applications of logic to computer science. Thus our choice of topics has been heavily influenced by such applications. Of course, we cover the basic traditional topics - syntax, semantics, soundness, completeness and compactness - as well as a few more advanced results such as the theorems of Skolem-Lowenheim and Herbrand. Much of our book, however, deals with other less traditional topics. Resolution theorem proving plays a major role in our treatment of logic, especially in its application to Logic Programming and PROLOG. We deal extensively with the mathematical foundations of all three of these subjects. In addition, we include two chapters on nonclassical logic- modal and intuitionistic - that are becoming increasingly important in computer science. We develop the basic material on the syntax and se mantics (via Kripke frames) for each of these logics. In both cases, our approach to formal proofs, soundness and completeness uses modifications of the same tableau method introduced for classical logic. We indicate how it can easily be adapted to various other special types of modal log ics. A number of more advanced topics (including nonmonotonic logic) are also briefly introduced both in the nonclassical logic chapters and in the material on Logic Programming and PROLOG.

Book Synopsis The Application of Logic by : Alfred Sidgwick
Download or read book The Application of Logic written by Alfred Sidgwick. This book was released on 2015-06-17. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Application of Logic This book attempts to state with a minimum of technicality the logical doctrines that remain when we discard those parts of the traditional logic which are misleading in application. While trying to approach the difficulties by easy stages, and fully recognising that simplification is a gain wherever its cost in error is not too great, I have found it necessary to show on occasion the harm that is done by the delusive simplifications on which the traditional logic is based. But as the aim of the book is construction rather than technical criticism the special references desirable for the latter purpose have here been generally omitted. The old system has lost much of its former authority both as a court of appeal in real disputes and as a scientific analysis of real thinking. But it is still unfortunately retained as an elementary subject of instruction. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
