Description
With this volume of
the series Logic, Epistemology, and the Unity of Science edited by S.
Rahman et al. a challenging dialogue is being continued. The series’
first volume argued that one way to recover the connections between logic,
philosophy of sciences, and sciences is to acknowledge the host of alternative
logics which are currently being developed. The present volume focuses on four
key themes. First of all, several chapters unpack the connection between
knowledge and epistemology with particular focus on the notion of knowledge as
resulting from interaction. Secondly, new epistemological perspectives on
linguistics, the foundations of mathematics and logic, physics, biology and law
are a subject of analysis. Thirdly, several chapters are dedicated to a
discussion of Constructive Type Theory and more generally of the proof-theoretical notion of
meaning. Finally, the book
brings together studies on the epistemic role of abduction and argumentation
theory, both linked to non-monotonic approaches to the dynamics of
knowledge.
