Substructural Logics: A Primer (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The aim of the present book is to give a comprehensive account of the 'state of the art' of substructural logics, focusing both on their proof theory (especially on sequent calculi and their generalizations) and on their semantics (both algebraic and relational. It is for graduate students in either philosophy, mathematics, theoretical computer science or theoretical linguistics as well as specialists and researchers.

Rezensionen

From the reviews: "This is a well written introduction to ... substructural logics. ... The author's aim is to deal with a particular group of these logics ... . In fact, the book could be well used as a textbook for an undergraduate course, or even for a beginning graduate course. ... A further advantage of the text is that the logics are introduced in a new unified notational system making the first chapters a handy reference for any logician who works in this area of logic."
