Description:... While considerable discussion has taken place regarding scientific discovery, we are still in the dark about what a «logic» of discovery should look like. In this work, the author argues that formal dialogue theory is the best candidate for a logic of discovery. Formal dialogue logic is explored in detail. More broadly, a view of knowledge is put forward which encourages exploring the epistemological aspects of discovery.
