The 14 ideas from 'Negation'

Inconsistency doesn't prevent us reasoning about some system [Mares]
Standard disjunction and negation force us to accept the principle of bivalence [Mares]
The connectives are studied either through model theory or through proof theory [Mares]
Many-valued logics lack a natural deduction system [Mares]
In classical logic the connectives can be related elegantly, as in De Morgan's laws [Mares]
Excluded middle standardly implies bivalence; attacks use non-contradiction, De M 3, or double negation [Mares]
Consistency is semantic, but non-contradiction is syntactic [Mares]
Three-valued logic is useful for a theory of presupposition [Mares]
For intuitionists there are not numbers and sets, but processes of counting and collecting [Mares]
Intuitionist logic looks best as natural deduction [Mares]
Intuitionism as natural deduction has no rule for negation [Mares]
In 'situation semantics' our main concepts are abstracted from situations [Mares]
Situation semantics for logics: not possible worlds, but information in situations [Mares]
Material implication (and classical logic) considers nothing but truth values for implications [Mares]
