Excerpt from The Laws of Discursive Thought: Being a Text-Book of Formal Logic
Kant's Critick of Pure Reason. Since that date, Logic has had a greater amount of interest collected round it in Great Britain than any other mental science, and has become incorporated with the fresh est and brightest thought of the country. The in terest in the study has been increased by the Logic of Mr. John Stuart Mill, who has evidently felt the in fluence of Whately in the respect which he pays to Formal Logic, but adheres, as a whole, to the prin ciples of his father, Mr. James Mill, introducing some elements from the cognate Positive Philosophy of M. Comte. Mr. Mill has given an impulse to the study, not by the portion of his work which treats of Formal Logic - which is not of much scientific value - but by his valuable exposition of the Logic of Induction, which would have been of much more value had he left out the constant defences of his empirical meta physics.

Excerpt from The Laws of Discursive Thought: Being a Text-Book of Formal Logic
If we look back half a century we find Formal Logic taught in nearly all the colleges of Great Britain and America, but exercising an influence infinitely less than nothing (to use a phrase of Plato's) on the thought of the countries. Some of the professors and tutors were expounding it in a dry and technical manner, which wearied young men of spirit, and bred a distaste for the study; while others adopted an apologetic tone for occupying even a brief space with so antiquated a department, and threw out hints of a new Logic as about to appear and supersede the old. The lingering life maintained by that old Aristotelian and Scholastic Logic, in spite of the ridicule poured upon it by nearly all the fresh thinkers of Europe for two or three centuries after the revival of letters, is an extraordinary fact in the history of philosophy; I believe it can be accounted for only by supposing that the syllogism is substantially the correct analysis of the process which passes through the mind in reasoning.
