Philosophy & What Matters. Ep. 27: Women in Logic with Sara Uckelman (aka Doctor Logic) (Durham)
Channel: Jeremiah Joven Joaquin
Date: 2021-01-04

"Philosophy & What Matters" deals with questions that matter to us from a philosophical point of view.

Logic is often thought of as a male-dominated field, with the likes of Aristotle, Boole, Peirce, Frege, Russell and Whitehead as acknowledged founders of this area of inquiry. But, as our guest in this episode suggests, we should also acknowledge the contributions of women in the development of modern logic.

To celebrate these contributions and why they matter, we have Sara Uckelman, Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Durham University. She’s also the Associate Editor of the Journal of Logic, Language, and Information, and the resident Doctor of Logic on YouTube.
