C. Paseau\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLogical monism is the claim that there is a single correct logic, the 'one true logic' of our title. The view has evident appeal, as it reflects assumptions made in ordinary reasoning as well as in mathematics, the sciences, and the law. In all these spheres, we tend to believe that there are determinate facts about the validity of arguments. Despite its evident appeal, however, logical monism must meet two challenges. The first is the challenge from logical pluralism, according to which there is more than one correct logic. The second challenge is to determine which form of logical monism is the correct one. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003eOne True Logic\u003c\/em\u003e is the first monograph to explicitly articulate a version of logical monism and defend it against the first challenge. It provides a critical overview of the monism vs pluralism debate and argues for the former. It also responds to the second challenge by defending a particular monism, based on a highly infinitary logic. It breaks new ground on a number of fronts and unifies disparate discussions in the philosophical and logical literature. In particular, it generalises the Tarski-Sher criterion of logicality, provides a novel defence of this generalisation, offers a clear new argument for the logicality of infinitary logic and replies to recent pluralist arguments.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOwen Griffiths is a philosopher of logic and language, and a lecturer at University College London and the University of Cambridge.
