Philosophy has always been marked by its self-conscious concern with the activity of reasoning, and one very important facet of the subject has been the development of methods for the systematic study of the ways in which reasons can support conclusions. The development of logic has therefore paralleled the development of philosophy, throughout its history and throughout many of the cultures of the world: work on logic is found among the Ancient Greeks, within Classical Indian philosophy, in Islamic and Western philosophy of the Middle Ages, through to an explosion of activity in modern times.
