Paperback. Modal logic is the logic of necessity and possibility. Unlike non-modal logic, it codifies structures which represent how things could be as well as how things are. This text guides readers through the most basic systems of modal predicate logic with identity. Dealing with both technical developments such as completeness and incompleteness and finite and infinite models, it discusses philosophical applications, especially in the area of predicate logic. This entirely new work guides the reader through the most basic systems of modal propositional logic up to systems of modal predicate with identity, dealing with both technical developments and discussing philosophical applications.

Riassunto

This long-awaited book replaces Hughes and Cresswell's two classic studies of modal logic: An Introduction to Modal Logic and A Companion to Modal Logic.
A New Introduction to Modal Logic is an entirely new work, completely re-written by the authors. They have incorporated all the new developments that have taken place since 1968 in both modal propositional logic and modal predicate logic, without sacrificing tha clarity of exposition and approachability that were essential features of their earlier works.
The book takes readers from the most basic systems of modal propositional logic right up to systems of modal predicate with identity. It covers both technical developments such as completeness and incompleteness, and finite and infinite models, and their philosophical applications, especially in the area of modal predicate logic.
