Abstract

Entemann (2002) defends fuzzy logic by pointing to what he calls "misconceptions" concerning fuzzy logic. However, some of these ‘misconceptions’ are in fact truths, and it is Entemann who has the misconceptions. The present article points to mistakes made by Entemann in three different areas. It closes with a discussion of what sort of general considerations it would take to motivate fuzzy logic.
