Call for Papers

For more than two decades now, each year has seen a growing number of 
important results in the emerging field centered on the interactions 
between game theory and logic. We feel that it is time for the philosopher
 
to assess in which ways those results bear on the fundamental questions of
 
the philosophy of logic. In particular, what insight have we gained on 
such central notions as truth, validity, proof, proposition, form and 
formality, logicality, etc. We would thus like to open a series of books 
that we conceive as a gathering place where philosophical ideas concerning
 
those topics can be expressed, scrutinized and confronted. The series will
 
be published by College Publications 
(http://www.collegepublications.co.uk/ 
<http://www.collegepublications.co.uk/>) as a new subseries of the 
'Philosophy' series.

We therefore invite submissions related to all aspects of the 
philosophical consequences of the interactions between games and logic. 
More specific topics include (but are not limited to): game-theoretical 
semantics, dialogical logic, ludics, Ehrenfeucht-Frass games, 
game-theoretical notions of logical form, game-theoretical notion of 
proposition, logical games between semantics and proof theory, games and 
modal logic.

The editors, S. Rahman and L. Keiff
