When Is A Reason For Doing Or Believing Something A Good Reason? Over The Past Century, Logicʹs Contribution To Answering This Question Has Typically Involved Finding Logical Forms: That Is, Using A Special Notation To Bring Out Logical Features More Clearly. The Correct Identification Of Logical Forms Has Been Held To Be Important Not Only To Logic But Also To Philosophy.
