Abstract

Paraconsistent logic is a family of non-classical logics to tolerate inconsistency. Many systems of paraconsistent logics have been developed, and they are now applied to several areas including engineering. Jair Minoro Abe, who is an expert on annotated logics, is one of the important figures in paraconsistent logics. This book collects papers, addressing the importance of paraconsistent logics for several fields.

Dedicated to Jair Minoro Abe for his 60th birthday
