Beschreibung

Print on Demand. This book is a logic manual outlining the theory and practice of logical reasoning. Distinguishing itself from Aristotelian logic, it posits that all reasoning has its foundation in words. The author asserts that words are signs of knowledge, and that every premise and conclusion involves three elements: the thing known or recognized, the thing or things related to it by which it is known, and the knowledge itself. The book emphasizes the importance of distinguishing between real things, ideal things, and abstract, metaphysical things, and discusses the use of language in expressing our knowledge of each type. It also explores the concepts of terms, propositions, and arguments, providing clear explanations and examples to help readers improve their logical reasoning skills. Overall, this book provides a comprehensive and practical guide to logic, suitable for students and scholars alike. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.

Excerpt from A Manual of Logic: Being One of the Two Sequels to "Grammar on Its True Basis"

This Manual of Logic is humble in its size, and form of publication; but in its principles it pretends to originality, and in its purpose to interfere with doctrines that have been advocated by some of the profoundest teachers of our kind. I wish, therefore, in this preface, to excuse such presumption as this very statement carries with it, and to soften, as well as I can, the prejudice which I may raise by making it.
