The Snake and the Fox is a highly imaginative and fun way to learn logic. Mary Haight's characters guide you through an elaborate tale of how logic works.

For anyone coming to logic for the first time, this is the best place to start. Mary Haight makes logic easy and fun - she asks the reader questions, and uses words instead of logic symbols with amusing pictures and characters to help them.
This book teaches all the basics the reader needs to know about logic (how arguments work, sound, valid reasoning, truth tables, Venn diagrams etc) in a truly enjoyable and innovative way. Anyone teaching themselves logic, or learning it on a course is bound to benefit from this original and intriguing book.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Offering a different way to look at and understand logic, this volume uses graphics to tell the story of how logic works, and why it works the way it does. Things explained and discussed in the text include basic logic concepts such as: sound and valid reasoning; logical form; formal and informal fallacies; necessary and contingent statements; inductive vs. deductive reasoning; the logic of statements, using truth-tables; the logic of sets, using Venn diagrams; and the logic of statements. Using proofs and rules of inference, Mary Haight covers material used in any orthodox introduction to logic course. She also includes some discussion on the philosophical theory underlying the logic: not just how to do it, but why it takes the form it does. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 00104445424
