More about the book

The book explores the pivotal role of logic in later medieval philosophy and science, highlighting its unifying influence across various disciplines. Unlike today's specialized methodologies, the medieval period relied on a singular logical approach that encompassed semantics and formal epistemology. Logic was fundamental to the curriculum, serving as a prerequisite for studying other subjects like natural philosophy, theology, ethics, and medicine. The text also contrasts medieval logic's coherence with the fragmented nature of modern scientific methodologies, emphasizing the differences and similarities between the two traditions.
