On the Algebra of Logic [In: American Journal of Mathematics. Volume III. Number I.]. - [INTRODUCING MODERN SEMANTICS]
Cambridge, 1880. 4to, entire issue present (Vol. III, no. 1). With the original printed wrappers. Uncut. Wrappers detached and with tears and loss to extremities. Backtrip gone. Stitching a bit loose. Internally nice and clean. Pp. (15)-57. [Entire issue 96 pp. + 2 plates]
The scarce first printing of Peirce's important paper ""On the Algebra of Logic"", in which he broke with the Aristotelian semantics of classes and introduced modern semantics, allowing a class symbol to be empty (as well as to be the universe), and stated the truth values of the categorical propositions that we use today.""This article holds a place of some importance in the history of formal logic and mathematics. In what is published here from the first chapter Peirce discusses that relationship between thinking and cerebration (or logic and physiology)."" (The Essential Peirce: 1867-1893 v. 1: Selected Philosophical Writings, Indiana University Press, 1992, 200 pp.
