तर्क, भाषा-खेल और सूचना

परिचय

This collection of essays appeared in 1973 at Clarendon Press in Oxford. Its centrepiece is game-theoretical semantics: the meaning of quantifiers such as “every” and “some” is explained by games of seeking and finding between a verifier, who tries to show a sentence true, and a falsifier, who tries to show it false; the sentence is true if the verifier has a winning strategy. Hintikka presents this as a precise version of Wittgenstein’s idea of language-games. Other essays deal with information, probability and the logic of perception. The book opened a line of research that Hintikka later continued in his independence-friendly logic.
