What are the differences between abstract logic and linear logic? I don't think I've heard of those before. The only forms of logic I am familiar with are Aristotelian and Boolean (and symbolic, but I think that's Boolean). But after doing a google search I see people talking about them, I'm just not sure what they are. BTW, speaking of irrational actions, Aristotle's "Rhetoric" is a lot of fun if you like logic. He explains how to use logical fallacies to win lawsuits. In democratic Athens, people in trouble with the law or having other kinds of problems presented their "case" to whoever happened to be listening in the agora, who would vote afterwards. Aristotle explained that pure logic and reason were not nearly as persuasive as emotion, and that using only logic and reason was a good way to lose your case.
