To understand logic is, first and foremost, to understand logical consequence. This Element provides an in-depth, accessible, up-to-date account of and philosophical insight into the semantic, model-theoretic conception of logical consequence, its Tarskian roots, and its ideas, grounding, and challenges.-

Gila Sher received her B.A. from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and her PhD from Columbia University (1989). She is a philosophy professor at the University of California San Diego. Her research centers on foundational issues in epistemology, the theory of truth, and the philosophy of logic. She
advocates a substantivist approach to philosophy and is interested in new perspectives on classical philosophical problems. Her book, The Bounds of Logic (MIT, 1991) investigates the nature of logic through the nature of logical constants. She has published papers in leading academic journals, and
is currently working on books on truth and epistemic freedom.
