In three comprehensive volumes, Logic of the Future presents a full
panorama of Charles S. Peirce's important late writings. Among the
most influential American thinkers, Peirce took his existential
graphs to be his greatest contribution to human thought. The
manuscripts from 1895-1913, most of which are published here for
the first time, testify the richness and open-endedness of his
theory of logic and its applications. They also invite us to
reconsider our ordinary conceptions of reasoning as well as the
conventional stories told about the evolution of modern logic. This
second volume collects Peirce's writings on existential graphs
related to his Lowell Lectures of 1903, the annus mirabilis of his
that became decisive in the development of the mature theory of the
graphical method of logic.

first volume of Logic of the Future is on the historical
development, theory and application of Peirce's graphical method
and diagrammatic reasoning. It also illustrates the abundant
further developments and applications Peirce envisaged existential
graphs to have on the analysis of mathematics, language, meaning
and mind.
OndrejMajer, Ahti-VeikkoPietarinen, andTeroTulenheimo 1 Games and
logic in philosophy Recent years have witnessed a growing interest
in the unifying methodo- gies over what have been perceived as
pretty disparate logical 'systems', or else merely an assortment of
formal and mathematical 'approaches' to phi- sophical inquiry. This
development has largely been fueled by an increasing
dissatisfaction to what has earlier been taken to be a
straightforward outcome of 'logical pluralism' or 'methodological
diversity'. These phrases appear to re ect the everyday chaos of
our academic pursuits rather than any genuine attempt to clarify
the general principles underlying the miscellaneous ways in which
logic appears to us. But the situation is changing. Unity among
plurality is emerging in c- temporary studies in logical philosophy
and neighbouring disciplines. This is a necessary follow-up to the
intensive research into the intricacies of logical systems and
methodologies performed over the recent years. The present book
suggests one such peculiar but very unrestrained meth- ological
perspective over the eld of logic and its applications in
mathematics, language or computation: games. An allegory for
opposition, cooperation and coordination, games are also concrete
objects of formal study.

Charles Sanders Peirce (1839-1914), the principal subject of this
book, was one of the most profound and prolific thinkers and
scientists to have come out of the United States. His pragmatic
logic and scientific methodology largely represent the application
of interactive and intercommunicative triadic processes, best
viewed as strategic and dialogic conceptualisations of logical
aspects of thought, reasoning and action. These viewpoints also
involve pragmatic issues in communicating linguistic signs, and are
unified in his diagrammatic logic of existential graphs. The
various game-theoretic approaches to the semantics and pragmatics
of signs and language, to the theory of communication, and to the
evolutionary emergence of signs, provide a contemporary toolkit,
the relevance of which Peirce envisioned to a wondrous extent. This
work sheds considerable new light on these and other aspects of
Peirce's philosophy and his pragmatic theory of meaning.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th
International Conference on the Theory and Application of Diagrams,
Diagrams 2020, held in Tallinn, Estonia, in August 2020.*The 20
full papers and 16 short papers presented together with 18 posters
were carefully reviewed and selected from 82 submissions. The
papers are organized in the following topical sections: diagrams in
mathematics; diagram design, principles, and classification;
reasoning with diagrams; Euler and Venn diagrams; empirical studies
and cognition; logic and diagrams; and posters. *The conference was
held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The chapters 'Modality
and Uncertainty in Data Visualization: A Corpus Approach to the Use
of Connecting Lines,' 'On Effects of Changing Multi-Attribute Table
Design on Decision Making: An Eye Tracking Study,' 'Truth Graph: A
Novel Method for Minimizing Boolean Algebra Expressions by Using
Graphs,' 'The DNA Framework of Visualization' and 'Visualizing
Curricula' are available open access under a Creative Commons

In three comprehensive volumes divided into five books, Logic of
the Future presents a full panorama of Charles S. Peirce's
important late writings. Among the most influential American
thinkers, Peirce took his existential graphs to be his greatest
contribution to human thought. The manuscripts and letters from
1895–1913, most of which are published here for the first time,
testify the richness and open-endedness of his theory of logic and
its applications. They also invite us to reconsider our ordinary
conceptions of reasoning as well as the conventional stories told
about the evolution of modern logic. This first part of the third
volume (Volume 3/1) of the Logic of the Future series contains
Peirce's 1904–1909 writings on his mature philosophy of
pragmaticism, which is grounded upon the principles of logical
analysis as provided by existential graphs.
