Handbook of Logic

This book represents an attempt to provide students in a one-semester introductory course in logic with: (1.) A handbook of the fundamentals of the science, brief and succinct enough to be practical and yet substantial enough to provide them with a solid foundation in the traditional from which to approach the "mysteries" of modern developments in the field; (2.) A working knowledge of the science, out of which students may build the personal equipment needed to solve the problems posed by the impact of the new on the old in the field of logic; and, (3.) Sufficient problem material to enable students to learn the use of logic, so that in reconciling in their own minds the new and the old, the modern and the traditional, they may do this logically.
