The International Congresses of Logic, Methodology and Philosophy
of Science, which are held every fourth year, give a cross-section
of ongoing research in logic and philosophy of science. Both the
invited lectures and the many contributed papers are conductive to
this end. At the 9th Congress held in Uppsala in 1991 there were 54
invited lectures and around 650 contributed papers divided into 15
different sections. Some of the speakers who presented contributed
papers that attracted special interest were invited to submit their
papers for publication, and the result is the present volume. A few
papers appear here more or less as they were presented at the
Congress whereas others are expansions or elaborations of the talks
given at the Congress. A selection of this kind, containing 38
papers drawn from the 650 contributed papers presented at the
Uppsala Congress, cannot do justice to all facets of the field as
it appeared at the Congress. But it should allow the reader to get
a representative survey of contemporary research in large areas of
philosophical logic and philosophy of science. About half of the
papers of the volume appear in sections listed at the Congress
under the heading Philosophical and Foundational Problems about the
Sciences. The section Foundations of Logic, Mathematics and
Computer Science is represented by three papers, Foundations of
Physical Sciences by six papers, Foundations of Biological Sciences
by three papers, Foundations of Cognitive Science and AI by one
paper, and Foundations of Linguistics by three papers.
