Logic

For more than twenty tears, introductory logic students have relied on this text to provide clear lessons in logic as well as practical applications of the discipline. Baum emphasizes formal logic and uses such elements of popular culture as cartoons and advertisements to illustrate technical concepts. The text addresses all the basic concepts of logic, including informal analysis of statements and arguments, Aristotelian logic, propositional logic, quantificational logic, enumerative induction, the scientific method, probability, informal fallacies, definitions, and applied logic.
