Summary

Starting with symbolizing sentences and sentential connectives， this work proceeds to the rules of logical inference and sentential derivation， examines the concepts of truth and validity， and presents a series of truth tables。 Subsequent topics include terms， predicates， and universal quantifiers; universal specification and laws of identity; axioms for addition; and universal generalization。 1964 edition。 Index。

João Vaz ，

Great fun！ Highly recommend it to anyone interested in making their arguments bulletproof or in how to prove that 1+1 = 2。

Great in the beginning but starting from chapter 6 you have to make certain jumps that aren't explained or showcased early on。 Had they been accounted for， this would have been a perfect 5 stars。One may benefit from reading Suppes' "Introduction to Logic" before jumping into this， at least for the everything from chapter 6 and upwards。 Despite my gripes with the chapter 6 and above， everything before it is presented perfectly。 One could not find a more clear guide to learning and practicing math Great in the beginning but starting from chapter 6 you have to make certain jumps that aren't explained or showcased early on。 Had they been accounted for， this would have been a perfect 5 stars。One may benefit from reading Suppes' "Introduction to Logic" before jumping into this， at least for the everything from chapter 6 and upwards。 Despite my gripes with the chapter 6 and above， everything before it is presented perfectly。 One could not find a more clear guide to learning and practicing mathematical logic than this。 I would still buy this despite my current rating。 。。。more

The exercises in the beginning reminded me of grammar exercises from the 1st grade--so fun。 I do not remember ever having a class in logic， even though I was tutoring students in the course for a couple of years。 This book is not just for mathematicians， but for anybody interested in understanding logical arguments （No mathematical experience is necessary -- NONE， seriously）。 I would honestly recommend anyone in Law school to take a peek at this book; if they are not able to do the proofs， then The exercises in the beginning reminded me of grammar exercises from the 1st grade--so fun。 I do not remember ever having a class in logic， even though I was tutoring students in the course for a couple of years。 This book is not just for mathematicians， but for anybody interested in understanding logical arguments （No mathematical experience is necessary -- NONE， seriously）。 I would honestly recommend anyone in Law school to take a peek at this book; if they are not able to do the proofs， then perhaps they should choose another line of work。 。。。more
