  • Sentential Logic Primer
    Sentential Logic for Psychologists Richard Grandy Daniel Osherson Rice University1 Princeton University2 September 28, 2010 [email protected] [email protected] ii Copyright This work is copyrighted by Richard Grandy and Daniel Osherson. Use of the text is authorized, in part or its entirety, for non-commercial non-profit purposes. Electronic or paper copies may not be sold except at the cost of copy- ing. Appropriate citation to the original should be included in all copies of any portion. iii Preface Students often study logic on the assumption that it provides a normative guide to reasoning in English. In particular, they are taught to associate con- nectives like “and” with counterparts in Sentential Logic. English conditionals go over to formulas with ! as principal connective. The well-known difficul- ties that arise from such translation are not emphasized. The result is the conviction that ordinary reasoning is faulty when discordant with the usual representation in standard logic. Psychologists are particularly susceptible to this attitude. The present book is an introduction to Sentential Logic that attempts to situate the formalism within the larger theory of rational inference carried out in natural language. After presentation of Sentential Logic, we consider its mapping onto English, notably, constructions involving “if . then . .” Our goal is to deepen appreciation of the issues surrounding such constructions. Errors, obscurity, or other defects can be brought to our attention via elec- tronic mail ([email protected], [email protected]). The provenance of revisions will be gratefully acknowledged as new versions are produced. Richard Grandy Daniel Osherson iv Note to students So .

  • Greening the Boston Marathon
    Greening the Boston Marathon Eugene Lim 11.122 Term Paper December 11, 2001 Professor O’Rourke The Boston Marathon is one of the most anticipated one-day athletic events in the world because of its storied tradition and its multicultural participation. A vast amount of resources are prepared, consumed, and disposed of in the days before, during, and after the race. For a one-day event, the Boston Marathon produces a substantial amount of waste. In addition, both the organizers and the participants promote practices that are detrimental to the environment and contribute to the amount of waste produced. The purpose of this paper is to discuss ways to ‘green’ the habits of organizers and participants alike as well as reduce the size of the ‘ecological footprint’ that the Boston Marathon leaves in its wake every year. But before delving into potential solutions, it would be in good order to mention some interesting facts about the marathon, first from an overhead perspective then more importantly from a ‘resource usage’ point of view. The Boston Marathon was founded in 1897, making it the 2nd oldest marathon in the country, 2nd only to the New York City Marathon, which was founded a year before. There are 15,000 official participants, meaning that they have run a qualifying time or better at a certified marathon around the world.
