Abstract
This volume is made up of essays about logic, rather than essays in logic. They range from a critique of the foundations of logic, e.g., Egidi's essay, "The Internal Crisis of Logicism," to excellent phenomenological analyses on the genetics of logic, e.g., P. Filiasi Carcano's "Psychoanalysis of Logic," and S. Piro's fresh approach to the semantics of the schizophrenic. In the middle of this spectrum we find good surveys of the main trends of logical work. The best essay, by E. Paci: "Foundation and Logical Construction of the World in Carnap," brings life to the no man's land between logical literature and phenomenology. The important contributions of Paci, and his bridging role with regard to all living philosophical trends should receive prompt attention in the United States.—A. M.
