Aristotle developed a complex system of modal syllogistic which has been disputed since antiquity and is today widely regarded as incoherent. Combining analytic rigor with sensitivity to historical context, Marko Malink argues that the modal syllogistic forms an integrated system of logic, closely related to other areas of Aristotle's philosophy.
