In "A Logic of Facts; Or, Every-day Reasoning," George Jacob Holyoake explores the foundational principles of reasoning as they apply to everyday life. This significant work, written in a clear and engaging style, emphasizes practical logic over abstract theory, providing readers with applicable skills for critical thinking. Holyoakes contribution to the field of logic arises within a broader context of 19th-century rationalism, as he deftly navigates philosophical discussions while making them accessible to the general populace. George Jacob Holyoake was an influential figure not only as a philosopher but also as a social reformer and secularist. His experiences as a publisher and a proponent of cooperative movements shaped his understanding of public reasoning and the importance of rational discourse in personal and communal settings. Holyoakes work is reflective of his commitment to uplift society through education and enlightenment, solidifying his legacy as a pioneer in advocating logical reasoning in everyday affairs. Readers are highly encouraged to delve into Holyoakes "A Logic of Facts" to gain practical insights into reasoning that transcend academic confines. This work is not only a guiding resource for critical thought but also serves as a historical touchstone, appealing to both scholars and general readers interested in the development of logic and reasoning in the modern era.

In "A System of Logic, Ratiocinative and Inductive," John Stuart Mill presents a methodical exploration of the principles of logical reasoning and the foundations of scientific inquiry. Mill employs a clear and analytical literary style, merging empirical observation with inductive reasoning, a departure from the strictly deductive methods of his predecessors. His work not only seeks to establish a formal framework for scientific methodology but also serves as a pivotal text in the broader context of 19th-century philosophy, reflecting the intellectual currents of utilitarian thought and the burgeoning fields of sociology and economics. Mills elaborate treatment of informal logic and his emphasis on the interdependence of observation and theory are particularly notable as they anticipate later discussions in philosophy of science. John Stuart Mill, a prominent philosopher, political economist, and civil servant, was deeply influenced by the intellectual environment of his time. As a proponent of utilitarianism and a critic of dogmatic reasoning, Mills desire to refine the processes of logical inference can be traced to his personal experiences, including his upbringing in a rigorous philosophical household and advocacy for social reform. His commitment to advancing human knowledge and addressing societal issues inspired him to synthesize and articulate a comprehensive logic system. Mills "A System of Logic" is an essential read for anyone interested in the critique of knowledge and the art of reasoning. This text is invaluable for students of philosophy, science, and social studies, revealing the intricate mechanisms behind sound reasoning and methodological rigor. By engaging with Mills arguments, readers will not only enhance their critical thinking skills but also gain insights into the foundational ideas that have shaped modern thought.

In "Analysis of Mr. Mills System of Logic," W. Stebbing meticulously critiques and expands upon the foundational principles established by John Stuart Mill regarding deductive and inductive reasoning. Employing a rigorous analytical lens, Stebbing dissects Mills methodology, exploring the nuances of logical inference and empirical validation within the broader context of 19th-century philosophical discourse. The text is characterized by its clarity and precision, reflecting the burgeoning intellectual climate of the time, influenced by the intersections of empiricism and rationalism, and responds to ongoing debates about the nature of knowledge and scientific inquiry. W. Stebbing, an eminent philosopher and logician, was heavily influenced by the prominence of logical positivism and the evolving ideas surrounding scientific method during his era. His academic pursuits, particularly at Cambridge, were marked by an engagement with the works of Mill, leading him to undertake this comprehensive analysis. Stebbing sought to bridge the gap between Mills theories and contemporary philosophical challenges, demonstrating a commitment to advancing logical theory through critical engagement. This book is an indispensable resource for anyone interested in the development of logic and philosophy. Scholars, students, and enthusiasts alike will find Stebbings analysis both enlightening and thought-provoking, offering fresh insights into Mills legacy while fostering a deeper understanding of the complexities inherent in logical systems.

La intención de este volumen es la de profundizar desde varias perspectivas la temática de la modalidad. De ahí que los artículos reunidos nos mencionen nociones como la necesidad, la contingencia y la posibilidad desde varias especialidades filosoficas. La modalidad ha fecundado los estudios logicos en los ultimos años, abre debates inconclusos en filosofia y proporciona alternativas conceptuales cuyo poder explicativo no ha sido explotado por completo. Es por ello, por lo que el Ars Logicorum 3 presenta un crisol de maneras de entender la modalidad desde autores como Aristoteles, Santo Tomas, Stalnaker, Lewis, la semantica y el problema de Newcomb.

La larga deriva de la última modernidad se enuncia como crisis: crisis en las ciencias y en las artes, en la cultura y en la sociedad. Los viejos y acostumbrados criterios de verdad y de valor, de belleza o de justicia no han sobrevivido sin daño en un mundo unificado y diferenciado por la globalizacion, en un mundo que se enfrenta a nuevos retos y a nuevos riesgos. Claves de Hermeneutica: para la filosofia, la cultura y la sociedad, es una obra colectiva en la que un conjunto de especialistas de relevancia nacional e internacional en las distintas areas del conocimiento articula respuestas diversas a esos nuevos retos y a esos nuevos riesgos, replanteando las cuestiones candentes en torno al sentido en la postmodernidad. En la senda del Diccionario de Hermeneutica que los mismos directores impulsaron con exito hace unos años, estas Claves pretenden ofrecer pautas de interpretacion y comprension, presentandose como propuesta multiple y abierta. Como respuesta plural a los diferentes temas y problemas que se plantean en un mundo a la vez unificado y conflictivo.

In 1776, writer Thomas Paine publishes his pamphlet "Common Sense," setting forth his arguments in favor of American independence. Although little used today, pamphlets were an important medium for the spread of ideas in the 16th through 19th centuries.Originally published anonymously, "Common Sense" advocated independence for the American colonies from Britain and is considered one of the most influential pamphlets in American history. Credited with uniting average citizens and political leaders behind the idea of independence, "Common Sense" played a remarkable role in transforming a colonial squabble into the American Revolution.At the time Paine wrote "Common Sense," most colonists considered themselves to be aggrieved Britons. Paine fundamentally changed the tenor of colonists argument with the crown when he wrote the following: "Europe, and not England, is the parent country of America. This new world hath been the asylum for the persecuted lovers of civil and religious liberty from every part of Europe. Hither they have fled, not from the tender embraces of the mother, but from the cruelty of the monster; and it is so far true of England, that the same tyranny which drove the first emigrants from home, pursues their descendants still."

Este volumen corresponde a la investigación filosófica y a la producción académica del autor, relativa a la metafísica principalmente, así como a una reflexión sobre la religión, en especial en sus relaciones con la ciencia.El conocimiento de lo invisible diseña un itinerario que, partiendo de un analisis logico de la experiencia, va mas alla con la intencion cognitiva, entrando en el campo de la metafisica y de la trascendencia. Este interes intelectual se resume en lo que, para Evandro, es el caracter especifico de la filosofia: la busqueda del fundamento y del significado. Estos dos conceptos aparecen en sus trabajos ya desde sus primeros ensayos sobre los fundamentos de las matematicas, la obligacion moral, la epistemologia de las ciencias psicologicas, los derechos humanos y la esperanza de inmortalidad, que se mezclan de vez en cuando con el problema del sentido rastreable en los distintos niveles de la realidad, y culminan en la busqueda del sentido de la vida en su totalidad.

Este libro es el resultado de un ejercicio académico que tiene como inspiración central la necesidad de comprender tanto el complejo edificio de la constitución de la ciencia moderna, como, por su puesto, el lugar que ocupamos en este proyecto inacabado como profesionales de las ciencias sociales y humanas.Asi mismo, tiene como funcion revisar la investigacion y las metodologias utilizadas por la filosofia y las ciencias sociales a la hora de enfrentarse al discurso monolitico de las miradas epistemicas hegemonicas.La reflexion esta motivada por la pregunta acerca de como se puede aportar desde la teoria al ambito de la practica. Tiene tambien la pretension de comprender el hiato y la escision, entre teoria y practica, y la obligacion de encontrar alternativas, para restablecer su vinculo, mas no como antes, sino con perspectivas azas novedosas.

En la historia del pensamiento de lengua española, esta obra representa la manifestación más importante de la filosofía hispanoamericana influida por la europea anterior al idealismo alemán y contemporanea de esta hasta la positivista y, por lo mismo, un hito de relieve singular en la historia entera de dicho pensamiento. Si en los pueblos de lengua española cultivasemos nuestros clasicos como debieramos, aunque no fuesen comparables a los clasicos de otros pueblos, en las clases de filosofia deberiamos preferir a cualquier traduccion numerosos pasajes de Bello para ilustrar las exposiciones o practicar el comentario de textos.

Forallx is an introduction to sentential logic and first-order predicate logic with identity, logical systems that significantly influenced twentieth-century analytic philosophy. After working through the material in this book, a student should be able to understand most quantified expressions that arise in their philosophical reading. This book treats symbolization, formal semantics, and proof theory for each language. The discussion of formal semantics is more direct than in many introductory texts. Although forall x does not contain proofs of soundness and completeness, it lays the groundwork for understanding why these are things that need to be proven. Contents: What is logic?
