This book gives a logical formalization of the original, explanatory approach to nonmonotonic reasoning. It uses the basic formalism of biconsequence relations, as well as derived systems of default, autoepistemic and causal inference, to cover in a single framework such diverse systems as default logic, autoepistemic and modal nonmonotonic logics, input/output and causal logics, argumentation theory, and semantics of general logic programAdvances in logic ;v. 4.Nonmonotonic reasoningArtificial intelligenceElectronic books.Nonmonotonic reasoning.Artificial intelligence.005.115Bochman Alexander1955-521861MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910450429603321Explanatory nonmonotonic reasoning838096UNINA02982nam 2200745 450 991078367130332120231013175008.01-280-26862-X92-9173-655-497866102686271-4237-4295-8(CKB)1000000000246793(EBL)284754(OCoLC)781253510(SSID)ssj0000100612(PQKBManifestationID)11124715(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000100612(PQKBWorkID)10036889(PQKB)10772607(MiAaPQ)EBC4388522(MiAaPQ)EBC284754(Au-PeEL)EBL4388522(CaPaEBR)ebr10104373(OCoLC)58481664(Au-PeEL)EBL284754(CaONFJC)MIL26862(EXLCZ)99100000000024679320160215h20052005 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrAIDS in Africa /UNAIDSGeneva, Switzerland :UNAIDS,2005.©20051 online resource (224 p.)Description based upon print version of record.92-9173-410-1 Includes bibliographical references.Contents; Executive summary; Starting points; Driving forces; Tough choices; Traps and legacies; Times of transition; Scenario analysis; Using scenarios; AppendicesSub-Saharan Africa is the region of the world worst affected by HIV and AIDS. This important new book describes three scenarios of possible future developments of the epidemic in the region. The scenarios presented do not prescribe action nor predict outcomes but in vivid story-telling style explore 'what if?' questions; readers are encouraged to reflect on the scenarios and pose their own questions. The book will be of value to anyone concerned about HIV and AIDS living or working in the region, and also members of governments and officials, donors and other international organizations.AIDS (Disease)AfricaEpidemiologyAIDS (Disease)Government policyAfricaAIDS (Disease)PreventionHIV infectionsAfricaEpidemiologyHIV infectionsGovernment policyAfricaHIV infectionsPreventionEpidemicsPreventionAIDS (Disease)Epidemiology.AIDS (Disease)Government policyAIDS (Disease)Prevention.HIV infectionsEpidemiology.HIV infectionsGovernment policyHIV infectionsPrevention.EpidemicsPrevention.614.5993920096Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910783671303321AIDS in Africa775021UNINA
