Excerpt from Logic
Logic, in the most extensive sense which it can with propriety be made to bear, may be considered as the Science and also as the Art of Reasoning. It investigates the principles on which argumentation it conducted, and furnishes rules to secure the mind from error in its deductions. Its most appropriate office, however, is that of instituting an analysis of the process of the mind in Reasoning: and in this point of view it is, as has been stated, strictly a Science: while considered in reference to the practical rules above mentioned, it may be called the Art of Reasoning. This distinction, as will hereafter appear, has been overlooked, or not clearly pointed out by most, writers on the subject, Logic having been in general regarded as merely an Art; and its claim to hold a place among the Sciences having been expressly denied.
Considering how early Logic attracted the attention of philosophers, it may appear surprising that so little progress should have been made, as is confessedly the case, in developing its principles, and perfecting the detail of the system: and this circumstance has been brought forward as a proof of the barrenness and futility of the study. But a similar argument might have been urged with no less plausibility, in past ages, against the study of Natural Philosophy, and very recently against that of Chemistry. No Science can be expected to make any considerable progress, which is not cultivated on right principles. Whatever may be the inherent vigour of the plant, it will neither be flourishing nor fruitful till it meet with a suitable soil and culture: and in no case is the remark more applicable than in the present; the greatest mistakes having always prevailed respecting the nature of Logic, and its province having in consequence been extended by many writers to subjects with which it has no proper connection. Indeed, with the exception of Aristotle, (who is himself not entirely exempt from the errors in question,) hardly a writer on Logic can be mentioned who has clearly perceived, and steadily kept in view throughout, its real nature and object. Before his time, no distinction was drawn between the Science of which we are speaking, and that which is now usually called Metaphysics: a circumstance which alone shows how small was the progress made in earlier times.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book begins with a discussion of the definition and history of logic, the science of correct reasoning. As an art, logic is a method of employing reason properly, while, as a science, it provides a system of principles for analyzing and evaluating arguments. The author traces the development of logic from ancient times, highlighting contributions from philosophers such as Zeno, Euclid of Megara, and Aristotle. The author then examines the various types of arguments, including categorical, hypothetical, and disjunctive syllogisms, and provides rules for determining their validity. The book also addresses the use of language in reasoning, discussing topics such as terms, propositions, and fallacies. The author concludes by emphasizing the importance of logic for clear thinking and effective communication.
