Minimal Negation Operators • 1

To accommodate moderate levels of complexity in the application of logical graphs to practical problems our Organon requires a class of organules called “minimal negation operators”.  I outlined the history of their early development from Peirce’s alpha graphs for propositional … Continue reading

The Difference That Makes A Difference That Peirce Makes • 15

Re: Peirce List • JA • GF One could hardly dispute the importance of logical implication relations like   Their set-theoretic analogues are subset relations like which are almost the canonical way of expressing constraint, determination, information, and so on.  … Continue reading

The Present Is Big With The Future • Comment 2

My interest in this theme of Leibniz goes back to a time when I began exploring generalized measures of determination and qualitative analogues of differential calculus — doctrines of absolute determinism or predestination had long ago loosened their hold on … Continue reading

The Present Is Big With The Future • Comment 1

Re: Peirce List • John Sowa Re: Peirce List • Jon Awbrey Here is a passage from Leibniz where he half decrypts half encrypts the big idea sparking his discovery of the differential calculus. The Present Is Big With The … Continue reading
