Including inductive, formal and mathematical. I find them separated a lot and I don't know if I have the ability to sit through all the Handbook of the History of Logic series.

3Inductive logic is hardly included into usual History of Logic books. See Kneale & Kneale , The Development of Logic and Leila Haaparanta (editor), The Development of Modern Logic.– Mauro ALLEGRANZACommented Apr 18, 2019 at 6:05

1Formal and mathematical are the same subject. Inductive/informal are a different subject using an older sense of "logic", it is not very cohesive to lump them together. But you can try The History of Philosophical and Formal Logic: From Aristotle to Tarski by Malpass-Marfori.– ConifoldCommented Apr 18, 2019 at 18:03

1Well, "all of logic" is hugely broad. I think looking for a single book will ultimately be futile - there's just too much to say, and given the variety it's actually better to avoid a single perspective: even if we ignore issues of bias, there's the simple fact that one would want each topic to be covered by an expert in said topic, and I'd be amazed if a universal expert existed. I think, daunting though it may be, the HHL series is worth the effort if you really want to know it "all." (You can pick-and-choose from the essays, after all, so it's not really thousands of pages to read.)– Noah SchweberCommented Apr 19, 2019 at 18:18

Do you think that's more of an issue for logic than philosophy?– shawnruCommented Apr 19, 2019 at 21:29

A heavyweight set of volumes is Gabbay and Woods (eds) Handbook of the History of Logic. sciencedirect.com/handbook/handbook-of-the-history-of-logic/…– BumbleCommented Jul 27 at 9:31

Józef Maria Bocheński, O.P., History of Formal Logic covers logic from the Greeks up to mathematical logic, with a section on Indian logic, too.
