Logic: A Complete Introduction

This guide to Critical Thinking, the use of Logic, s the best I have ever read and used!

Just what I was looking for. I find parsing arguments difficult and non-intuitive. The author teaches three systems: categorical, propositional, and predicate logic. She builds gradually, showing how each works and what its limits are. After explaining the principles of each system, she shows how to translate arguments from real language and then test for validity and truth.If you read this book, take your time with it and work all the examples and exercises. I only wish there were more, particularly in the final chapter; they are very helpful. By the end, each system makes sense and I feel ready to apply what I've learned in the real world.There are a few typos in the exercises, but they are easy to spot and, once spotted, actually reinforce that you understand the material.

Interesting read.

This book is well-written and has a good introduction. I hope that the author writes more books on logic and philosophy. I started reading it a year ago, set it aside because of health demands, and have gleefully returned to it. Of course, I recommend it.

I had read some on logic from my dad in high school but this text is much more comprehensive.

The text is easy to read. Everyone can read and understand it.The kindle edition is perfect.Explanations are precisely written.The text is still a little too long. But this is to explain everything.A very good book.

Wow. I really have a good time reviewing the information from this book. EXCELLENT.

I am a researcher in religious studies with some self-taught background in philosophy. I just realized recently that the field of logic has advanced greatly, leaving behind many traditional philosophical propositions and modes of reasoning. So I tried to teach modern logic to myself but found it to be very complicated. I am very grateful to have finally come across this book. Professor Lee has a way of making highly complicated concepts understandable, without sacrificing the complexity of academic debates behind controversial issues (these are indeed my focus). I am stunned at the degree to which she can combine clarity with complexity. She is apparently not only a great logician, but also a great teacher. I am grateful for the contributions she has made to the field and to the public.
