    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    Many-valued Logics attempts an elementary exposition of the topics connected with logical many-valuedness. It will provide readers with a stimulating discussion which focuses on the constructions being "many-valued" at their origin, i.e. those obtained through intended introduction of logical values next to truth and falsity. A selective bibliography and historical references make the work especially useful as a survey and guide in this field of logic.

    Long description:

    The book attempts an elementary exposition of the topics connected with many-valued logics. It gives an account of the constructions being "many-valued" at their origin, i.e. those obtained through intended introduction of logical values next to truth and falsity. To this aim, the matrix method has been chosen as a prevailing manner of presenting the subject.

    The inquiry throws light upon the profound problem of the criteria of many-valuedness and its classical characterizations. Besides, the reader can find information concerning the main systems of many-valued logic, related axiomatic constructions, and conceptions inspired by many valuedness.

    The examples of various applications to philosophical logic and some practical domains, as switching theory or Computer Science, helps to see many-valuedness in a wider perspective. Together with a selective bibliography and historical references it makes the work especially useful as a survey and guide in this field of logic.

    informative ... The author provides an efficient survey of the large and rather diffuse literature on many-valued logics ... gives a very good overview for someone wishing to orient themselves in the field, and provides a substantial list of references for anyone wishing to follow up particular topics. It is the best introductory monograph in the field, and can be confidently recommended to students ... an excellent read.
