The Journal of Symbolic Logic publishes original scholarly work in symbolic logic. Founded in 1936, it has become the leading research journal in the field. The Journal aims to represent logic broadly, including its connections with mathematics and philosophy as well as newer aspects related to computer science and linguistics.
