'''Logic of Relatives (1870)''', more precisely, "Description of a Notation for the Logic of Relatives, Resulting from an Amplification of the Conceptions of Boole's Calculus of Logic", is a 60 page memoir by [[Charles Sanders Peirce]], published in the ''Memoirs of the [[American Academy of Arts and Sciences]]'' in 1870. The paper is one of the wellsprings of contemporary systems of logic. After a brief account of its historical setting, the body of this article traces the outlines of Peirce's 1870 Logic of Relatives, noting a few of its more striking anticipations, interpreting its formulations with respect to the contemporary understanding of logic that it served to shape, and setting in higher relief a few of its promises that have yet to be taken up. ==References== * Peirce, C.S.
