Hardback. Presents a treatment of deductive aspects and structures of fuzzy logic understood as many valued logic sui generis. This book shows that fuzzy logic as a logic of imprecise (vague) propositions does have well-developed formal foundations and that most things usually named 'fuzzy inference' can be naturally understood as logical deduction. Series: Trends in Logic. Num Pages: 299 pages, biography. BIC Classification: HPL; PBCH. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 19. Weight in Grams: 615.
