This is a first course in propositional modal logic, suitable for mathematicians, computer scientists and philosophers. Emphasis is placed on semantic aspects, in the form of labelled transition structures, rather than on proof theory. The book covers all the basic material - propositional languages, semantics and correspondence results, proof systems and completeness results - as well as some topics not usually covered in a modal logic course. It is written from a mathematical standpoint. To help the reader, the material is covered in short chapters, each concentrating on one topic. These are arranged into five parts, each with a common theme. An important feature of the book is the many exercises and an extensive set of solutions is provided.

Industry Reviews

"This text should appeal to anyone with an interest in model logic...an attractive choice for self-study." J.M. Plotkin, Mathematical Reviews "...offers a distinctive viewpoint and is easy to learn from." D.V. Feldman, Choice
