To those interested in the history of logic and computation, and the relationship between them (and algebra) -- which, BTW, was not at all accidental or surprising but completely by design -- I've compiled an anthology of mostly primary sources starting with Aristotle and going up to the 1950s: https://pron.github.io/computation-logic-algebra https://pron.github.io/computation-logic-algebra
- schwurb 7y agoI just want to thank you for all you work! I have enjoyed your answers and content in the past, and I will continue to do so, be it as a PhD. or as a hobbyist :)
- philzook 7y agoOh my god. Your article is incredible.
- lioeters 7y agoOver the course of a few weeks, I've been going through your "History of Computation, Logic and Algebra". I just wanted to say, brilliant work, thank you! The way you present the history is really insightful in understanding the current of philosophy and ideas that led up to our modern conception and use of computation.
