New York, Dover Publications, no date. 424 pp. As new. Paperback. George Boole was on of the greatest mathematicians of the 19th century, and one of the most influential thinkers of all time. This work is the first extensive statement of the modern view that mathematics is a pure deductive science that can be applied to various situations. Boole first showed how classical logic could be treated with algebraic terminology and operations, and then proceeded to a general symbolic method of logical interference; he also attempted to devise a calculus of probabilities which could be applied to situations hitherto considered beyond investigation.
