SEARCH The LogicianAvi Sion2021-03-08T05:53:32+02:00 SEARCH FACILITY Use this to look for a term or phrase throughout The Logician site, or in a selected one of its modules: Use the form above to search for documents in this website containing specific
words or phrases. Type your query and press Search button. BE SURE TO SPELL
CORRECTLY (it is no use, for instance, searching for “hypothisis”)!
Note that I usually prefer
American to British spelling of English.This search facility seems based on whole words; parts of words
won’t do. If a noun does not work, try the corresponding adjective or verb; or
vice-versa; e.g. if “Freud” yields nothing or not enough, try “Freudian”. Preferably, keep your query simple. Try single words
rather than complex phrases. e.g. ask for “adduction” rather than
for “the definition of adductive argument”.More often than not, you are likely to be offered too many
hyperlinks in response to your query.For this reason, you may find it
worthwhile searching through one book at a time, using the box on the
right hand side marked ‘site’ to select the book. But note that you can
also “refine” your search in successive stages.
Sometimes, the best way to search for a specific
topic in The Logician is to look in the General Sitemap, or in the more detailed tables of Contents of
the various books (use the buttons at top and on the left to find those). Once there, you
can use your browser’s “edit/find” facility; or scroll down looking for the
chapter and section most likely to contain the information you need. (For example, if you seek the definition of ‘logic’, it is
hopeless to search for that word, since it is used in almost every page! Rather,
go to Future Logic, chapter 1, section 1, and you will likely find a good
first definition.) Try also the Shortcuts below to various topics. Or checkout
the Google Books Search tool given
further down. If after serious search you still cannot find what you are looking for, simply put
your query in writing to: avi-sion@thelogician.net SHORTCUTS
Major Innovations. Important new discoveries in logic: | Factorial Induction | in FL 50-59 | Future Logic is the first work ever to strictly formalize the inductive processes of generalization and particularization, through the novel methods of factorial analysis, factor selection and formula revision. | Matricial Analysis | in LC 11-24 | The Logic of Causation is the first work ever to strictly formalize the induction and deduction of causative and indeed all conditional propositions, by means of matricial analysis. | A Fortiori Argument | in AFL 1-4 | A Fortiori Logic provides a thoroughly formal analysis of
various aspects of this subject which were not previously investigated in
