The Fuzzy Logic Theory has been considered a brilliant and potent revolutionary computer technology that has received a broad attention during last decades, widely employed in the fields of Physics, Mathematics and Chemistry, particularly for the classification and systematization of information with applications in Theoretical Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence. The main reason of this is that Fuzzy logic is a system of concepts, principles and methods for approximate ways of reasoning which are expressed in natural language. This chapter reviews the application of Fuzzy Logic Theory to the field of the Quantitative Structure Property-Activity Relationships Theory, describing the studies developed by different experts in this fascinating field.
