Sinopsis

Master the basics of logical thinking with clear, practical guidance.

This accessible introduction explains how we form inferences, judge their validity, and apply logical methods to everyday problems. Written for university students, it breaks complex ideas into concrete steps you can test and use. This edition outlines core topics such as inference, the scope of logic, terms, propositions, and the laws of thought. It shows how careful observation, Experiment, and induction fit into a broader method of reasoning. The book also connects logical ideas to science, language, and everyday decision making, helping you think more clearly and reason more effectively.

  • Learn what makes an inference valid and how to test it against experience.
  • Understand how language and terms shape meaning in logic.
  • Explore the structure of propositions, syllogisms, and conditional reasoning.
  • See how observation, experiment, and induction support knowledge.
Ideal for readers of introductory logic, philosophy students, and anyone who wants sharper reasoning skills in study and work.

Excerpt from Logic: An Introductory Manual for the Use of University Students

At the same time attention has been called to certain aspects of the subject which seem of great importance, but which have apparently escaped the notice of examiners. Thus in Chapter VII. There is a brief exposition of the relation between the purely formal Laws of Thought and the regulative principles that underlie actual thinking about concrete things, in which the conditions of abstract thought are never entirely fulfilled.

Excerpt from Logic: An Introductory Manual for the Use of University Students

The present work is intended to serve as an introductory manual for the use of students.

Like the author's "Psychology" and his "Ethics" it follows, in the main, t.he customary and traditional lines adopted by most English teachers, and authoritatively laid down by the English universities. In particular the author believes the book will prove of service to those reading Logic for the London B. A. Pass Examination.

At the same time attention has been called to certain aspects of the subject which seem of great importance, but which have apparently escaped the notice of examiners. Thus in Chapter VII. there is a brief exposition of the relation between the purely formal Laws of Thought and the regulative principles that underlie actual thinking about concrete things, in which the conditions of abstract thought are never entirely fulfilled.

Obligations to previously published works are fully acknowledged in the text; but the author desires here to express his thanks to Mr. W. E. Tanner, M. A., of the University of London, who has very kindly assisted him with many useful corrections and suggestions.
