Published as volume 78 of the North-Holland \"Studies in Logic\" series under an editorial board including Arend Heyting, Abraham Robinson, and Andrzej Mostowski, the book systematically extends the Lindenbaum-Tarski algebraisation of classical logic to the full range of non-classical systems: intuitionistic, modal, positive, many-valued, and other implicative logics are each given a corresponding class of algebras (implicative algebras, pseudo-Boolean algebras, Post algebras, and their generalisations), with representation theorems, completeness results, and topological dualities developed in parallel throughout. The work became, and remains, one of the standard references establishing what is now called Abstract Algebraic Logic as an independent field, its influence traced at length in later retrospectives such as \"Beyond Rasiowa's Algebraic Approach to Non-classical Logics\" (Studia Logica, 2006). This particular copy carries the distinctive imprint restriction of the joint PWN\/North-Holland co-editions, limiting original sale to the socialist bloc, and the institutional stamp of a Georgian library documents its passage through that restricted distribution network into a Tbilisi collection.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44690020368426,"sku":null,"price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/IMG_2400_2ce4ede2-c5e9-4103-9248-9c3131e0827f.jpg?v=1787263890","url":"https:\/\/stanzararebooks.com\/products\/rasiowa-h-an-algebraic-approach-to-non-classical-logics-studies-in-logic-and-the-foundations-of-mathematics-vol-78-first-edition-1974-in-english","provider":"Stanza Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
