This text is concerned with Delta, a paradox logic. Delta consists of two parts: inner delta logic, which resolves the classical paradoxes of mathematical logic; and outer delta logic, which relates delta to Z mod 3, conjugate logics, cyclic distribution and the voter paradox.

This book is about “delta”, a paradox logic. In delta, a statement can be true yet false; an intermediate state, midway between being and non-being. Delta's imaginary value solves many paradoxes unsolvable in two-valued Boolean logic, including Russell's, Cantor's, Berry's and Zeno's.Delta has three parts: “inner delta logic”, covering “Kleenean logic”, which resolves self-reference; outer delta logic, covering Z mod 3, conjugate logics, cyclic distribution, and the voter's paradox; and “beyond delta logic”, covering four-valued logic and games.

Part 1 Inner delta logic: paradox; ternary logic; ternary algebra; self-reference; fixed point semi-lattices; limit logic; paradox resolved; the continuum. Part 2 Outer delta logic: outer functions; conjugate logics; ternary arithmetic; binary projections; voter's paradox; delta dynamics; diamond; dilemma; speculations.
