Logic in general philosophy of science

old things and new things

Hannes Leitgeb

pp. 339-350

Abstract

This is a personal, incomplete, and very informal take on the role of logic in general philosophy of science, which is aimed at a broader audience. We defend and advertise the application of logical methods in philosophy of science, starting with the beginnings in the Vienna Circle and ending with some more recent logical developments.
