Alle mennesker er i stand til at udføre korrekte logiske slutninger, men vi gør os det sjældent klart, hvordan vi bærer os ad. Det kan logikken fortælle, og derfor spiller den en så vigtig rolle i mange moderne videnskaber. Moderne elementær logik tager læseren gennem den moderne logik og dens systemer – fra klassisk udsagnslogik over førsteordenslogik til modallogik, herunder aletisk, temporal og epistemisk logik. Bogen indeholder ligeledes kapitler af mere avanceret karakter om formelle strukturer, modelteori og metateoretisk analyse af udsagnslogik samt førsteordenslogik. Bogen er tilrettelagt med henblik på universiteternes grunduddannelser i bl.a. filosofi, matematik, datalogi, lingvistik og retorik, men henvender sig også til studerende på overbygningsuddannelsernes specialkurser – og i det hele taget enhver, der interesser sig for “tænkningens love”.

Grubleglæde. Det må være filosofiens sidestykke til spilleglæde eller fortælleglæde. Klummerne i Vincent vender virkeligheden er sprængfyldt med grubleglæde. Og så er bogen og filosofien i den netop helt ude og tage livtag med virkeligheden og dagligdagen – fra krigen i Irak over Obama i USA til Khader i Danmark. Befriende. Men også cool, drilsk og flabet på den rigtige måde. Filosofi, der kvikker og gør klog. Tankevækkende!

Evan Selinger.
Problems related to expertise are amongst the most pressing issues of our time. Although philosophical reflection has much to contribute to the identification and resolution of these problems, the topic of expertise has not received the professional attention that it deserves. Expertise: Philosophical Reflections corrects this imbalance by critically addressing fundamental conceptual and normative issues related expertise. In so doing, it covers a range of technological issues related to expert authority, judgment, and competence, including: the prospects of artificial intelligence, the ethics of sustainability research and sustainable design, controversy over advocacy for genetically modified foods, and behaviormodifying technologies called “nudges.”
Expertise today has become both highly important and controversial – Luddite politics, science skepticism, climate doubters complicate the scene. Evan Selinger takes a deep and probing look at styles of expertise … He adds his own empirical turn examples to give us all much needed insight into expertise in the 21st century. – Don Ihde
Expertise: Philosophical Reflections is a compelling and illuminative analysis of one of the most crucial issues in our technological culture … This study is a must-read for everybody who wants to understand and improve the role of experts, and our trust in them, in contemporary society. –Peter-Paul Verbeek
