Excellent Introduction November 9, 2004
M. Kuhn
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The title of this book very accurately reflects its contents. This textbook is a terrific introduction to the basics of logic and, more generally, rational thinking. It gives necessary and insightful history on the subject in interesting and highly retentive ways. The text gives more than an overview in the latter chapters, giving the reader a helpful preview into more advanced logical thought.
