Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The
book introduces a new form of mathematical logic called "Information Oriented Logic" (IOL). It
demonstrates that IOL is capable of solving various classical and non-classical logic problems
that cannot be solved by traditional methods of logic. In this book, it is argued that two
meaningful declarative sentences or symbols can make the same statement if they express the
same thing or referent in different ways. The book treats a piece of information as the
referent for a meaningful declarative sentence, thus inventing information-oriented logic. As
a result, this book provides a comprehensive guide to this logic. Unlike traditional logic,
which uses declarative sentences as the result of logical expressions, this new logic uses
pieces of information. The book is intended for undergraduate and graduate students, as well
as scholars applying mathematical logic to various fields such as philosophy, linguistics,
ontology, information theory, computer science, etc. Additionally, it provides a new mereology
in which all implications of a piece of information are its parts.
