Diamond: A Paradox Logic, Hardback Book

Diamond: A Paradox Logic Hardback

Part of the Series on Knots & Everything series

Hardback

Description

This book is about "diamond", a logic of paradox. In diamond, a statement can be true yet false; an "imaginary" state, midway between being and non-being.

Diamond's imaginary values solve many logical paradoxes unsolvable in two-valued boolean logic.

Diamond is a new way to solve the dilemmas of higher mathematics.

In this volume, paradoxes by Russell, Cantor, Berry and Zeno are all resolved.

This book consists of two sections: Elementary; which covers the classic paradoxes of mathematical logic and shows how they can be resolved in this new system; and Advanced, which relates diamond to Boolean logic, three-valued logic, Goedelian meta-mathematics and dilemma games.
