An Investigation Of The Laws Of Thought: On Which Are Founded The Mathematical Theories Of Logic And Probabilities (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781163489307)

""An Investigation of the Laws of Thought"" is a seminal work in the field of mathematics and logic, written by the English mathematician George Boole. The book explores the fundamental principles of logic and probability, and how they are interconnected. Boole's work laid the foundation for modern mathematical logic and provided a framework for the development of computer science. The book is divided into three sections, each of which explores a different aspect of logic and probability. The first section discusses the laws of thought and how they relate to mathematics. The second section explores the principles of probability and their application in various fields, including economics and statistics. The final section examines the relationship between logic and probability and how they can be used together to solve complex problems. Boole's work is considered a landmark in the history of mathematics and has had a profound impact on the development of modern logic and computer science.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
