SUMMARY:LRR10: Logic, Reasoning and Rationality, G
 ent, Belgium
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20100920
DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20100922
LOCATION:Gent, Belgium
DESCRIPTION:The idea that there is a strong connec
 tion between logic, reasoning, and rationality, wh
 ich was very popular among the philosophers of the
  Wiener Kreis, has long been out of fashion. Findi
 ngs from history and philosophy of science and fro
 m cognitive psychology have revealed that the trad
 itional logician's tool, Classical Logic, is not f
 it for explicating human reasoning either in the s
 ciences or in everyday life. Times have changed, h
 owever. Today, a multiplicity of formal frameworks
  (ranging from non-classical logics over probabili
 ty theory to Bayesian networks) is available in ad
 dition to Classical Logic. Also, historians and ph
 ilosophers of science as well as psychologists hav
 e described a rich variety of patterns in both sci
 entific and common sense reasoning.   The aim of L
 RR10 is to stimulate the use of formal frameworks 
 to explicate concrete examples of human reasoning 
 and, conversely, to challenge scholars in formal s
 tudies by presenting them with interesting new exa
 mples of actual reasoning. Therefore, we welcome p
 apers in all areas related to non-classical logics
  and non-classical formal frameworks. We also welc
 ome case studies from history and philosophy of sc
 ience, as well as from psychology, that enhance ou
 r apprehension of concrete reasoning patterns that
  occur in the sciences and in everyday life. Final
 ly, we welcome contributions that deal with the ph
 ilosophical implications of the present-day insigh
 ts for our understanding of rationality.   For mor
 e information, see http://www.lrr10.ugent.be/.   I
 f you would like to present a paper at the confere
 nce, please submit an abstract (500 to 1000 words)
  by March 15, 2010.
