The Formal Logic

Suren Basov

Chapter 11 in Microeconomics with Spreadsheets, 2017, pp 149-151 from World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte. Ltd.

Abstract: Often we need to be able to derive conclusions from the facts we already know. The process of making such conclusions is governed by the rules of formal logic. The formal logic does not allow us to arrive at new knowledge, i.e., we cannot learn the laws of physics from the logic alone. It only allows us to draw all the conclusions from what we already know.
