Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the nature of Formal Logic, a longstanding approach to the study of thought and reasoning. Tracing this discipline back to Ancient Greek philosophy, the author examines its fundamental assumption that the form of thought can be separated from its actual content or truth. This assumption, the author argues, leads to a host of contradictions and inconsistencies within Formal Logic, ultimately undermining its ability to capture the complexities of human thinking. Through a critical analysis of Formal Logic's key concepts, such as terms, propositions, and syllogisms, the author demonstrates how this approach fails to account for the dynamic and contextual nature of real thought processes. The book concludes by proposing an alternative approach to logic that acknowledges the inseparability of form and content, opening up new avenues for understanding how we reason and think.
