This comprehensive volume brings together a diverse group of philosophically inclined logicians and philosophers, primarily from Asia, to explore a wide range of logical and philosophical topics. The book delves into various areas such as modal logic and its related branches, including temporal logic, epistemic logic, deontic logic, logic of conditionals, and modal proof theory. Additionally, it examines the theory of truth, paradoxes, intentionality, and social networks, proposing innovative approaches such as extended modal logic with planarity of graphs, extended branching time temporal logic with conditional operators, and a relational treatment of language and logical systems.

Given the diverse range of subjects covered in this book, it has the potential to appeal to readers from a wide array of disciplines, including mathematical/philosophical logic, computing science, cognitive science, artificial intelligence, linguistics, game theory, and beyond. The book offers insightful perspectives and cutting-edge research on fundamental logical and philosophical issues, making it a valuable resource for scholars and researchers in these fields.

Overall, this volume serves as a testament to the rich and dynamic interplay between logic and philosophy, highlighting the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in advancing our understanding of these complex subjects.
