  neutrosophy \neutrosophy\, n. [L. neuter neutral, Greek sofia
     skill, wisdom.] (Philosophy)
     A branch of philosophy, introduced by Florentin Smarandache
     in 1980, which studies the origin, nature, and scope of
     neutralities, as well as their interactions with different
     ideational spectra. Neutrosophy considers a proposition,


     theory, event, concept, or entity, "A" in relation to its
     opposite, "Anti-A" and that which is not A, "Non-A", and that
     which is neither "A" nor "Anti-A", denoted by "Neut-A".
     Neutrosophy is the basis of neutrosophic logic, neutrosophic
     probability, neutrosophic set, and neutrosophic statistics.
