The book contains a collection of chapters written by experts from
the fields of philosophy, law, logic, computer science and
artificial intelligence who pay tribute to Professor Risto
Hilpinen's impressive work on the logic of induction, on deontic
logic and epistemology, and on philosophy of science. In addition
to an introduction by the editors, a section on Professor
Hilpinen's positions, professional services and honors, as well as
a complete bibliography of his writings, the editors, McNamara,
Jones and Brown, have compiled a multidisciplinary global
cross-section of academic contemporaries that provides insights and
perspectives on Hilpinen's influence and legacy. The essays reflect
central aspects of Risto Hilpinen's research interests, and offer
further contributions to some of the philosophical fields for which
he is best known: applied modal logic, including deontic logic
(from the ancient Greek deon, pertaining to the concepts of duty
and obligation), the semantics of normative language, the logic of
action, and the theory of practical reasoning; the analysis of the
concept of artifact; and the theory of semiotics in the tradition
of Charles Peirce. The presence in the collection of several papers
relating to deontic logic underlines Hilpinen's importance in that
area, in which his publications have long been recognized as
standard works. The book is an essential collection of ideas for
all those who feel at home in a variety of formal disciplines, from
propositional logic to the logic of artificial intelligence.
