Logic on the Track of Social Change cover

The book sets out a new logic of rules, developed to demonstrate how such a logic can contribute to the clarification of historical questions about social rules. The authors illustrate applications of this new logic in their extensive treatments of a variety of accounts of social changes, analysing in these examples the content of particular social rules and the course of changes in them.

The technical scholarship throughout the book is impeccable, and this work deserves careful study. * Mind, vol. 110, no. 440 *
an ambitious, impressive and engaging study. * Mind, vol. 110, no. 440 *
