Soft cover. Zustand: Near Fine. Altreuter, Emily (illustrator). 2nd Edition. Chichester. Wiley-Blackwell. 2012. Second Edition. Soft Covers. Illustrated wraps with a small light crease on front corner otherwise fine. No other wear to wraps and contents are as new. Altreuter, Emily (illustrator). A revolutionary, introductory text for courses on modern logic. While the basic rudiments of formal and informal logical are all clearly described here, it also focuses students on the real world, where the discipline of logic adds substance and meaning to all kinds of human discourse. As the book alternately discusses, instructs, questions, teases, and challenges, readers will find themselves absorbing the fundamentals of the discipline, becoming fluent in the language of logic, understanding how logic works in the real world, and enjoying logic's ability to entertain, surprise, subvert, and enlighten.
