"The 10th International Congress of Logic, Methodology and Philosophy of Science, which took place in Florence in August 1995, offered a vivid and comprehensive picture of the present state of research in all directions of Logic and Philosophy of Science. The leading choice criterion for the present volume is to combine papers containing relevant technical results in pure and applied logic with papers devoted to conceptual analysis, deeply rooted in advanced present-day research." "The volume is attractive both for the logical specialist and scholars interested in critical reflections on the foundations of Logic, Mathematics and Computer Science."--Jacket.
