‎First printing of Pollock's important paper, in which he created a system that brought together iteration of modalities, already ontic and still more deontic. At the mere age of 27, John Pollock published the present ""Basic Modal Logic"", in which he claims that: ""if we try to construct a theory of modal logic in which there are no iterated modalities, we can avoid most of the controversy and still have a theory that is strong enough for all of the normal uses to which modal logic is put."" This theory presents an approach to how modal distinctions can be incorporated into logic.‎
