Abstract
This chapter is a general introduction to the book and an overview of its content. It describes the aims and scope of the book, and explains why a historical perspective is essential for achieving the aims. It introduces informally the key concepts involved, and the particular challenge fuzzy logic poses to the principle of bivalence in classical logic. It looks at the circumstances that led to the emergence of fuzzy logic in the academic community and as well as at the agendas of two main subareas of fuzzy logic, known as fuzzy logic in the narrow sense and fuzzy logic in the broad sense. The content of each of the subsequent chapters of the book is also briefly described.
