How can you justify logic from physics if logic is primary to prove anything? You're building your lower layer upon an higher layer... It's contradictory.

# David Finkelstein wrote interesting papers about the "physics of logic" (and also about "introspective measurements")

That is a rather good introduction to quantum logic. Although I disagree with Putnam and his idea that quantum mechanics makes logic empirical. It shows that some logic are empirical, but as computationalism illustrates, there are deep classical logical reason why some logic are empirical, others are psychological, etc.

But Finkelstein is always very interesting and clear, it is a pleasure to disagree with him. Logic is shown empirical here, but only in the physicalist context.
