... You may wonder, though, whether SL’s completeness doesn’t make an extension of Sentential Logic unnecessary. This is definitely not the case. Predicate Logic is needed for mathematics precisely because SL is still deficient. This doesn’t contradict the fact that SL is complete, but to explain why no ...

Inquiry
An inquiry is any process that has the aim of augmenting knowledge, resolving doubt, or solving a problem. A theory of inquiry is an account of the various types of inquiry and a treatment of the ways that each type of inquiry achieves its aim.
