Designed to be a more accessible for courses in introductory logic, elementary symbolic logic, and critical thinking. This comprehensive introduction to logic provides a system of natural deduction, as well as an appendix that introduces the truth tree technique for propositional and predicate logic. Topic coverage includes four chapters devoted to induction: on analogies, on Mill's Methods, on probability and statistical reasoning, and on the scientific method. The text also covers deduction (syllogisms and symbolic logic), and informal fallacies. No library descriptions found. |

In general though, I find the book marred by typos, and not terribly well written. Except for the sections on definition and existential import it has nothing that Copi or Gensler don't cover more clearly.
