series’ first volume argued that one way to recover the connections
between logic, philosophy of sciences, and sciences is to
acknowledge the host of alternative logics which are currently
being developed. The present volume focuses on four key
themes. First of all, several chapters unpack the connection
between knowledge and epistemology with particular focus on the
notion of knowledge as resulting from interaction. Secondly, new
epistemological perspectives on linguistics, the foundations of
mathematics and logic, physics, biology and law are a subject
of analysis. Thirdly, several chapters are dedicated to a
discussion of Constructive Type Theory and more generally of
the proof-theoretical notion of meaning.Finally, the book brings
together studies on the epistemic role of abduction and
argumentation theory, both linked to non-monotonic approaches to
the dynamics of knowledge.
