Sinopsis

Understand logic with a clear, practical guide to terms, judgments, and evidence

This concise introduction breaks down how we form and test ideas in everyday reasoning.

The book also explains how induction and circumstantial evidence work, highlighting common pitfalls and how to reason more reliably.

  • Distinguishes between analytical and synthetic propositions and shows how they function in reasoning.
  • Explains how general terms connote ideas and denote things in the world.

Excerpt from An Introduction to Logic

Propositions, and the inferences themselves are always Propositions. Hence it is absolutely necessary for a Logician to consider the meaning or import of a Pro position. Indeed it will be seen hereafter that before we can lay down rules for drawing or testing inferences, it is necessary to reduce all Propositions to a fixed number of stated forms. Every Proposition, too, must contain at least two terms and a copula, and therefore Terms must also be dealt with in a Treatise on Logic.

Reseña del editor

Logic contributed by me toO urS chool Time, a periodical then attached toM onaglian Diocesan School. They were written at the request of Dr. Hime, the Head Master, who was also the editor of the periodical in question, with the object of making the subject intelligible to advanced school-boys and other beginners who might be among the readers of the paper. Those who desire to become acquainted with the fundamental principles of Deductive Logic only may confine their attention to these chapters; but it will be seen that the subsequent chapters intended for those who desire to carry their studies farther occupy about two-thirds of the book. I do not think the order in which the various matters treated of are dealt with will occasion any embarrassment to the student who reads on to the end; while for him who means to stop at the elementary principles no other order would have been suitable.
