This book is about ?diamond?, a logic of paradox. In diamond, a statement can be true yet false; an ?imaginary? state, midway between being and non-being. Diamond's imaginary values solve many logical paradoxes unsolvable in two-valued Boolean logic. In this volume, paradoxes by Russell, Cantor, Berry and Zeno are all resolved. This book has three sections: Paradox Logic, which covers the classic paradoxes of mathematical logic, shows how they can be resolved in this new system; The Second Paradox, which relates diamond to Boolean logic and the Spencer?Brown ?modulator?; and Metamathematical Dilemma, which relates diamond to Gdelian metamathematics and dilemma games.
