Logic - Battersea Park Philosophy Walk
Details
The only logical thing to do on Sunday October the 29th is to join us for a walk around Battersea Park and along the Thames for a discussion on philosophical logic. Logic is a fundamental aspect of philosophy, we'll be looking at how logic can apply to ethics, knowledge, reasoning and exploring different logical systems. I promise there won't be too much maths and I will attempt to make this potentially dry subject somewhat interesting!
Some suggested reading below. You don't have to read any of these books to attend or to have any background in philosophy or logic.
Logic: A Very Short Introduction

I will add more resources in the comments below.
Meet outside the exit of Battersea Power Station underground station at 11am.
This is a walking discussion group with handouts with quotes and questions provided as a starting point. The only rule is to keep all discussion friendly and constructive and be respectful of other attendees. No dogs please as they can be distracting from the group discussion. We don't stick to the paths and the way can get muddy so bring suitable footwear. Please try to arrive on time, we usually wait for about 10 minutes at the meeting location but once we have left it will be hard to find us!
There is an optional £5 fee for this walk to help contribute towards the meetup.com fees, and the time put in to prepare the walk and printed notes. This can be paid in cash on the day or via this stripe link: https://buy.stripe.com/3cs5mi0aD3SxeT65km
