If A, Then B: How the World Discovered LogicIf A, Then B: How the World Discovered Logic

While logical principles seem timeless, placeless, and eternal, their discovery is a story of personal accidents, political tragedies, and broad social change. If A, Then B begins with logic's emergence twenty-three centuries ago and tracks its expansion as a discipline ever since. It explores where our sense of logic comes from and what it really is a sense of. It also explains what drove human beings to start studying logic in the first place.

Derrida and the End of HistoryDerrida and the End of History

Questioning History ‘How can one be late to the end of history? A question for today.’1 Jacques Derrida’s fame rests  largely on his ability to devise eccentric approaches to philosophical and cultural problems, and he might well be thought to have excelled himself with this particular question. Assuming, that is, that one felt ‘the end of history’ made any sense as a concept, given that, as some thinkers would have it, history is the equivalent of humankind’s memory
