Susan Haacková je uznávaná filozofka známa svojím prenikavým skúmaním epistemológie a logiky. Jej kľúčový príspevok, koncept „foundherentizmu“, predstavuje inovatívny pokus o prekonanie obmedzení tradičných filozofických teórií poznania. Vo svojej práci sa Haacková ostro stavia proti názorom, ktoré by presadzovali ženskú perspektívu na vedeckú pravdu, a obhajuje nestranný prístup k filozofickému bádaniu. Jej eseje sa vyznačujú jasnosťou, presnosťou a nekompromisným intelektuálnym prístupom.

Initially proposed as rivals of classical logic, alternative logics have become increasingly important in areas such as computer science and artificial intelligence. Fuzzy logic, in particular, has motivated major technological developments in recent years.Susan Haack's Deviant Logic provided the first extended examination of the philosophical consequences of alternative logics. In this new volume, Haack includes the complete text of Deviant Logic , as well as five additional papers that expand and update it. Two of these essays critique fuzzy logic, while three augment Deviant Logic 's treatment of deduction and logical truth. Haack also provides an extensive new foreword, brief introductions to the new essays, and an updated bibliography of recent work in these areas.Deviant Logic, Fuzzy Logic will be indispensable to students of philosophy, philosophy of science, linguistics, mathematics, and computer science, and will also prove invaluable to experienced scholars working in these fields.
