Over dit product

Product Information

In this provocative and ground-breaking book, Keith Devlin argues that in order to obtain a deeper understanding of the nature of intelligence and knowledge acquisition, we must broaden our concept of logic. Classical logic, beginning with the work of Aristotle, has developed into a powerful and rigorous mathematical theory with many applications in mathematics and computer science, but it has proved woefully inadequate in the search for artificial intelligence. The new kind of logic, also mathematically based, outlined by Professor Devlin is the culmination of collaborative research among some of the world's leading logicians, philosophers, linguists, psychologists, and computer scientists. It introduces the concepts of infon, a quantum of information, and situations, a dynamical generalization of sets, and is capable of handlng the issues involved in human communication, thought, speech, and machine information processing.

Reviews
'... the fascinating account of a mathematician's views on how true mathematics - and not just a formalisation of it - can be used to model reality.' New Scientist, 'It is exciting to see a mathematician of Devlin's calibre joining the endeavour, and wonderful to have someone with his expository abilities explaining the work to others. His book Logic and Information is an important milestone in fulfilling this old hope.'Jon Barwise, 'The ideas in this fascinating, challenging, but speculative book are set forth with clarity and wit that does them justice.'D. V. Feldman, Choice, "...In Keith Devlin's work, however, regardless of which of these prognoses one favours, situation theory has found an able expositor. He has written a very good book indeed, which is bound to become a standard reference in the field." Neil Tennant, Philosophia Mathematica, "A bold effort to restore logic as the science of 'reasoning, thinking, and inference'....Devlin writes with uncommon clarity for an interdisciplinary audience of linguists, computer scientists, philosophers, and mathematicians." The American Mathematical Monthly, "Mathematically oriented readers interested in artificial intelligence and human cognition should be able to get new ideas from this well-written book." P. Jouvelot, Computing Reviews, 'The ideas in this fascinating, challenging, but speculative book are set forth with clarity and wit that does them justice.' D. V.
