Excerpt from The Art of Reasoning: A Popular Exposition of the Principles of Logic
Gentle reader, - Ih is fitting that you, who are about to peruse the following work, should know the design which the Author had in composing it. In looking at the works on Logic now generally read, he observed that they constituted two great classes, - lst. Those which were strictly formal in their character, and which, consequently, appeared to the general reader tedious, precise, dry, dull, and uninviting. 2nd. Those which, aiming at popularity, overstepped the legitimate bounds of the science - denuded it of its rigidly-formal and abstract nature - spread their observations over a widely-discursive field -and thus, by their very vagueness and indefinity, rendered their precepts vain, nugatory, unmeaning, and impracticable. N 0 one appeared to him sufficiently adapted, in manner and in matter, to the spirit of the age in which we live. To write a Logic which would be the synthesis of these - which would be popular in its method of exposition, without abating one jot or tittle of that abstract and formal austerity which science invariably assumes - was the aim of the Author.

Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. In the beginning, the author provides a history and analysis of logical thought from the ancient Greeks until the Christian era. The author traces the roots of logic back to Aristotelian thought and gives a detailed account of the development of logical theory from Aristotle through the Stoics, Epicureans, Skeptics, and the New Academy. There is also an examination of the influence of Christianity on the development of logic. The author argues that Christianity provided a new framework for logical thought by establishing the importance of faith and revelation. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of logic and its profound impact on our understanding of truth and knowledge. It is a great contribution to the field of intellectual history and provides a comprehensive overview of the development of logic. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
