""The Development of Symbolic Logic: A Critical-Historical Study of the Logical Calculus"" is a comprehensive study of the evolution of symbolic logic as a mathematical discipline. Written by Arthur T. Shearman, this book traces the origins of symbolic logic from its roots in ancient Greek philosophy to the modern-day mathematical logic that is used in computer science and artificial intelligence. The author provides a detailed analysis of the contributions made by key figures in the history of symbolic logic, including Aristotle, Boole, Frege, and Russell. The book also explores the philosophical implications of symbolic logic, such as the nature of truth and the limits of human reasoning. This critical-historical study is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history and development of logic, mathematics, and philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

The form that the present work has taken is due to some correspondence that I had with Mr. W. E. Johnson in the year 1903. He pointed out to me the error of thinking of the various symbolic systems as being radically distinct, and as competing with one another for general acceptance. Rather, he held, it is correct to adopt the view that there is available at the present time what may be called theL ogical Calculus, and that towards the creation of this Calculus most symbolists have contributed. This idea has been worked out in the following pages. I have traced the growth of the subject from the time when Boole originated his generalisations to the time when Mr.
