The Mathematical Analysis of Logic: Being an Essay Towards a Calculus of Deductive Reasoning (1847) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781498167291)

The Mathematical Analysis of Logic: Being an Essay towards a Calculus of Deductive Reasoning is a book written by George Boole and published in 1847. The book is a seminal work in the field of mathematical logic and lays the foundation for modern mathematical logic. Boole's work is based on the idea that logical reasoning can be represented and manipulated mathematically, similar to algebraic equations. He introduces a system of symbols and rules for manipulating them that allows logical propositions to be expressed in a concise and precise manner. Boole's system is considered a precursor to modern symbolic logic and has been influential in the development of computer science and artificial intelligence. The book is divided into three parts, with the first part introducing the basic concepts of logic, the second part developing the calculus of logic, and the third part applying the calculus to various forms of reasoning. The Mathematical Analysis of Logic is a significant work in the history of logic and mathematics and continues to be studied and referenced in modern research.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1847 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
