This guidebook describes a framework called the Progressive Outcomes Scale Logic Model which helps organizations analyze and address racial inequities in their programs and initiatives by explicitly considering the perspectives and experiences of people of color, essentially allowing them to identify how their work might unintentionally perpetuate systemic racism and actively work to dismantle it, which is crucial in the fight against poverty as racial disparities often contribute significantly to poverty rates. The guidebook encourages organizations to actively engage with communities of ...

96 Results of a Logical Permutation, elaborated to explain the logic of all known philosophical and mathematical systems.

The goal is to give each type of system equal treatment. Although typology is a major consideration in these systems, most typologies native to science are discarded as mere lists, or as lacking logical content.

In a letter of 1932, Karl Popper described Die beiden Grundprobleme der Erkenntnistheorie–The Two Fundamental Problems of the Theory of Knowledge–as ‘…a child of crises, above all of …the crisis of physics.' The two fundamental problems of knowledge that lie at the center of the book are the problem of induction, that although we are able to observe only a limited number of particular events, science nevertheless advances unrestricted universal statements; and the problem of demarcation, which asks for a separating line between empirical science and non-science.

In this lively and accessible introduction, Graham Priest shows how wrong this conception is. He explores the philosophical roots of the subject, explaining how modern formal logic deals with issues ranging from the existence of God and the reality of time to paradoxes of probability and decision theory. Along the way, the basics of formal logic are explained in simple, non-technical terms, showing that logic is a powerful and exciting part of modern philosophy.
