This text centers around three main subjects. The first is the
concept of modularity and independence in classical logic and
nonmonotonic and other nonclassical logic, and the consequences on
syntactic and semantical interpolation and language change. In
particular, we will show the connection between interpolation for
nonmonotonic logic and manipulation of an abstract notion of size.
Modularity is essentially the ability to put partial results
achieved independently together for a global result. The second
aspect of the book is the authors' uniform picture of conditionals,
including many-valued logics and structures on the language
elements themselves and on the truth value set. The third topic
explained by the authors is neighbourhood semantics, their
connection to independence, and their common points and differences
for various logics, e.g., for defaults and deontic logic, for the
limit version of preferential logics, and for general
approximation. The book will be of value to researchers and
graduate students in logic and theoretical computer science.
