Sinopsis

A clear, student‑friendly introduction to the core ideas of logic, with step‑by‑step exercises and practical examples. This edition presents the concepts in a structured sequence, guiding readers from basic terms to complex syllogisms and fallacies.


Designed for college use, the book covers the essentials: the nature of terms, the predicables, genus and species, the classification and symbolizing of propositions, and the rules for constructing and reducing syllogisms. It also introduces hypothetical and conjunctive logics, plus a rich appendix of logical puzzles to sharpen reasoning skills. Each section aims to build confidence through concrete, accessible explanations and plenty of practice.



  • Learn how terms are categorized and how to distinguish correlatives, abstracts, and concretes

  • Work with the five predicables and the genus–species framework to analyze statements

  • Practice forming, transforming, and reducing syllogisms across figures

  • Identify and evaluate common fallacies, analogies, and authorities in arguments


Ideal for readers of philosophy, critical thinking, and introductory logic courses who want a solid, application‑focused foundation.

Reseña del editor

Excerpt from Exercises in Logic: Designed for the Use of Students in Colleges

The following little work makes no preten sions to any other originality than that of plan. It has been prepared under the conviction, elsewhere expressed by the author, that a practical skill in logic can only be attained by a practical acquaintance with its rules, and that the means of a more progressive application of these, than has yet been furnished in works on the subject, was still a desideratum.
