Abstract

In this chapter, we briefly review paraconsistent logics which are closely related to the topics in this book. We give an exposition of their history and formal aspects. We also address the importance of applications of paraconsistent logics to engineering.

In fact, in some systems of paraconsistent logic, like da Costa’s systems \(C_n\), the “good” propositions do satisfy this principle.
