PHIL 4960 01 Non-Classical Logic
Description: This course provides an introduction to the philosophical and formal aspects of several families of non-classical logics that provide alternatives to classical (Russell-Frege) logic. Emphases will include philosophical objections to particular components of classical logic and how alternative formalizations of reasoning have emerged in order to accommodate these objections. In particular, topics to be covered will include logics of strict implication, intuitionistic logic, relevant logic, and fuzzy logic.
