PHIL 370 - Advanced Logic

Institution:

Sonoma State University

Subject:

Description:

This course is designed for students who have taken an introductory course in logic. The goal of this course is twofold. First, to consider some more complex logical languages and systems, and second, to consider some of the more properly philosophical issues raised by discussion of those systems. Possible topics of discussion include: modality and modal propositional languages, the probability calculus and its application to problems of induction and confirmation, decision theory and some of the paradoxes of rationality that it seems to give rise to, and game theory and its relation to economic and moral reasoning.
