This volume in the Brazilian Studies in the Philososophy and History of Science is the first attempt to present to a general audience some works which have been done in Brazil on ths subject. The included papers are original, reaching a remarkable number of relevant topics of philosophy of science, logic and on the history of science. The Brazilian community has increased in the last years in quantity and in quality of the works, most of them being published in respectable international journals on the subject. There is an informal but general among the philosophers and historians of science that the works must be of high quality, and we hope this volume may contribute to widespread this idea. The chapters of this volume are forwarded by a general introduction, which aims at to sketch not only the contents of the chapters, but it is conceived as a historical and conceptual guide about the development of field, as developed in Brazil. The introduction intends to be be very useful to the interestes readers, and not only to the specialists helping them to evaluate the production of this country that it is raising up in the international context.

Über den Autor Décio (Hrsg.) Krause

Décio Krause is Professor at the Graduate Program of Logic and Metaphysics at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. His works deal with the logical foundations of science, mainly involving the logical and metaphysical discussions about identity and individuality of quantum entities, and the applications of non-classical logics to the sciences. Prof. Krause pioneered formal work on non-reflexive logics and quasi-set theories. He is a member of the International Academy of Philosophy of Science, located in Brussels, and a researcher of the Brazilian National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq). Jonas R. Becker Arenhart is Associate Professor at the Department of Philosophy of the Federal University of Santa Catarina, Brazil, and researcher of the Brazilian National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq). His main research interests are focused on the relation between metaphysics and science, philosophy of logic, and logical foundations of science. Methodological aspects of the relation between science and metaphysics are the focus, with special interest is the case of quantum mechanics and the metaphysics of individuality and non-individuality. Also, special focus is given to applications of logic in foundational approaches to science and metaphysics, with emphasis on non-reflexive logics and paraconsistent logics.
