Non-Aristotelian logic
The term non-Aristotelian logic is used for any system of logic which does not divide statements into "true" and "false" statements, as opposed to Aristotle's two-valued system of logic.
See:
- General Semantics
- Fuzzy logic
- Neutrosophic logic
- Modal logic[?]
- Paraconsistent logic[?]
- Quantum logic[?]
The concept of non-Aristotelian logic was used by A. E. van Vogt as the central theme in his World of Null-A novels, based on his interest in Alfred Korzybski's General Semantics.
One common interpretation of the theory of Bayesian probability is precisely that probabilities describe degrees of belief[?] in propositions.
See also: Multi-valued logic for another article on this topic.
Compare with: Non-monotonic logic[?] where every statement is true or false, but not immutable.
