In this groundbreaking work, we embark on an intellectual odyssey into the realm of Charles Peirce's logical symphony, a graphical system of representation that revolutionized the way we perceive logical reasoning. Through a comprehensive exploration of Existential Graphs, we delve into the depths of Peirce's philosophical roots, tracing the evolution of his ideas from theory to groundbreaking graphical system. With an analytical eye, we unravel the intricate interplay of icons, indices, and symbols, revealing the underlying structure and dynamics of logical reasoning. The unique ability of Existential Graphs to represent complex logical relationships opens up new avenues for exploration in diverse fields, from logic and philosophy to computer science and cognitive science. Furthermore, we examine the profound impact of Peirce's logical symphony on the intellectual landscape. From its transformative influence on logic and philosophy to its far-reaching implications for computer science and cognitive science, we witness the enduring legacy of this groundbreaking system. With a critical eye, we explore the symphony's strengths, weaknesses, controversies, and limitations, while also envisioning its future prospects. Through this comprehensive analysis, we gain a deeper appreciation for the beauty and power of graphical representation. Peirce's Existential Graphs stand as a testament to his intellectual prowess, a testament to the enduring power of human ingenuity to unlock the secrets of the universe through the language of logic. This book is an essential guide for scholars, researchers, and students seeking to understand the depths of Peirce's logical symphony. It provides a comprehensive overview of Existential Graphs, their philosophical underpinnings, and their far-reaching implications across various disciplines. With its in-depth analysis and insightful perspectives, this book offers a valuable resource for anyone seeking to unravel the complexities of logical reasoning and representation.

In three comprehensive volumes, Logic of the Future presents a full panorama of Charles S. Peirce’s most important late writings. Among the most influential American thinkers, Peirce took his existential graphs to be a significant contribution to human thought. The manuscripts from 1895–1913, with many of them being published here for the first time, testify to the richness and open-endedness of his theory of logic and its applications. They also invite us to reconsider our ordinary conceptions of reasoning as well as the conventional stories concerning the evolution of modern logic. This first volume of Logic of the Future is on the historical development, theory and application of Peirce’s graphical method and diagrammatic reasoning. It also illustrates the abundant further developments and applications Peirce envisaged existential graphs to have on the analysis of mathematics, language, meaning and mind.
The Iconic Logic of Peirce's Graphs
A case study of multimodal systems and a new interpretation of Charles S. Peirce's theory of reasoning and signs based on an analysis of his system of Existential Graphs. At the dawn of modern logic, Charles S. Peirce invented two types of logical systems, one symbolic and the other graphical. In this book Sun-Joo Shin explores the philosophical roots of the birth of Peirce's Existential Graphs in his theory of representation and logical notation. Shin demonstrates that Peirce is the first philosopher to lay a solid philosophical foundation for multimodal representation systems. Shin analyzes Peirce's well-known, but much-criticized nonsymbolic representation system. She presents a new approach to his graphical system based on her discovery of its unique nature and on a reconstruction of Peirce's theory of representation. By seeking to understand graphical systems on their own terms, she uncovers the reasons why graphical systems, and Existential Graphs in particular, have been underappreciated among logicians. Drawing on perspectives from the philosophy of mind, cognitive science, logic, and computer science, Shin provides evidence for a genuinely interdisciplinary project on multimodal reasoning.
