Publisher's Synopsis
""Studies in Logical Theory"" is a collection of essays written by John Dewey, an American philosopher and educator. The book was first published in 1903 and is considered a seminal work in the field of logic. In this book, Dewey presents his ideas on logic, which he believes should be a tool for scientific inquiry rather than a set of abstract principles. He argues that logic should be used to analyze and evaluate scientific theories, and that it should be based on empirical evidence rather than abstract reasoning. The book is divided into three sections. The first section deals with the nature of logic, including its relationship to language and thought. The second section focuses on the role of logic in scientific inquiry, discussing topics such as induction, hypothesis testing, and the scientific method. The final section examines the philosophical implications of logic, including its relation to ethics and metaphysics. Overall, ""Studies in Logical Theory"" is an important work in the history of logic, and it continues to influence contemporary debates in philosophy and science. Dewey's ideas on logic have been praised for their pragmatism and their emphasis on the practical applications of logical reasoning.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
