An Investigation of the Laws of Thought on Which are Founded the Mathematical Theories of Logic and Probabilities

<p>At the age of twenty George Boole taught himself mathematics then worked his way through the mathematics of his day published papers in a wide range of mathematical fields until in this remarkably accessible seminal work he laid down postulates and axioms for logic for the first time - just as Euclid had done for geometry. Boolean algebra has become the basis for practical digital circuit design; thus Boole has provided the theoretical grounding for the Information Age.</p><p>"A classic of pure mathematics and symbolic logic"- Scientific American.</p><p>"Pure mathematics was discovered by George Boole in his work published in 1854."-Bertrand Russell.</p>
