This volume brings together a group of logic-minded philosophers and philosophically oriented logicians, mainly from Asia, to address a variety of logical and philosophical topics of current interest, offering a representative cross-section of the philosophical logic landscape in early 21st-century Asia. It surveys a variety of fields, including modal logic, epistemic logic, formal semantics, decidability and mereology. The book proposes new approaches and constructs more powerful frameworks, such as cover theory, an algebraic approach to cut-elimination, and a Boolean approach to causal discovery, to name but a few. Readers may find a wide range of applications of these original works in current research of philosophical logic, especially in the structural and conceptual analysis of some significant semantic properties and formal systems. The variety of topics and issues discussed here will appeal to readers from a broad spectrum of disciplines, ranging from mathematical/philosophical logic, computing science, cognitive science and artificial intelligence, to linguistics, game theory and beyond.

The first book that accurately represents the breadth and scope of current interest in research on philosophical logic in Asia Brings together a group of distinguished philosophers and renowned logicians, mainly from Asia, to present their latest research, which represents the cutting edge on a variety of special topics in philosophical logic Proposes new approaches and constructs more powerful frameworks, shedding light on and inspiring related research Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
