<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"French philosopher Gilles Deleuze wrote two 'logic' books: Francis Bacon: The Logic of Sensation and The Logic of Sense. However, in neither of these books nor in any other works does Deleuze articulate in a formal way the features of the logic he employs. He certainly does not use classical logic. And the best options for the non-classical logic that he may be implementing are: fuzzy, intuitionist, and many-valued. These are applicable to his concepts of heterogeneous composition and becoming, affirmative synthetic disjunction, and powers of the false. In The Logic of Gilles Deleuze. Volume 1: Basic Principles, Corry Shores examines the applicability of three non-classical logics to Deleuze's philosophy, by building from the philosophical and logical writings of Graham Priest, the world's leading proponent of dialetheism. Through so doing, Shores demonstrates how Deleuze's logic is best understood as a dialetheic, paraconsistent, many-valued logic"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>French philosopher Gilles Deleuze wrote two 'logic' books: <i> Francis Bacon: The Logic of Sensation</i> and <i>The Logic of Sense</i>.

What kind of logic can grasp Deleuze's ideas on, for example, synthetic disjunction, coalescent incompossibility, or about the power of falsity? Corry Shores, patient, scrupulous and sharp as he is, gives a brilliant answer to that.<br/>Roland Breeur, Professor of Philosophy, Leuven University, Belgium<br><br>This book provides an important advance in the understanding of Deleuze's philosophical project. By drawing on the dialetheism of Graham Priest, Shores provides a reading of Deleuze that shows the logical basis for much of his work.<br/>Jeffrey A. Bell, Professor of Philosophy, Southeastern Louisiana University, USA<br><br>Using an innovative logical methodology, Corry Shores invites us to grasp Deleuze's philosophy as laying bare a cinematographic reality conjoining continuity and discontinuity, duration and intellect, Aion and Chronos. In logical terms, Shores convincingly demonstrates how this can be understood along the lines of dialetheism as promulgated by Graham Priest, which is to say as 'complete and paraconsistent'. This general logic is carefully extracted from a wide ranging and attentive reading of Deleuze's oeuvre and from his various references to logical notions.<br/>Guillaume Collett, Researcher in the Centre for Critical Thought, University of Kent, UK<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Corry Shores</b> is Lecturer in the Department of Philosophy at the Middle Eastern Technical University, Ankara University, Turkey.
