On Monday December 18th, ILLC and Elsevier are throwing a party to celebrate the appearance of a number of volumes in the the growing series Handbook of the Philosophy of Science, edited by Dov Gabbay, Paul Thagard, & John Woods. More in particular, we will also launch the just-appeared Handbook of Modal Logic, edited by Patrick Blackburn, Johan van Benthem & Frank Wolter. Many people at and around ILLC have contributed to this volume, but other 'prime movers' will be present as well, including the Series publishers that we have worked with for so long.
The event will be held in the historical VOC Building in the centre of Amsterdam. For directions, click here.
