For undergraduate-level courses in Introduction to Logic. The most complete, authoritative treatment of introductory logic — both deductive and inductive, classical and modern — this text prepares students to understand, recognize, and apply classical syllogistic logic and the more powerful techniques of modern symbolic logic. All concepts and techniques are carefully and thoroughly explained and are brought to life through a wealth of real-life examples of lively arguments and explanations. These examples are drawn from political speeches, classics of philosophy (ancient and modern), scientific articles, writings on economics, literature, religious texts, and many recent writings on contemporary moral and social controversies familiar to students — all demonstrating the application of logical principles by serious writers and thinkers trying to solve real problems in a wide range of fields.
Introduction to Logic is a proven textbook that has been honed through the collaborative efforts of many scholars over the last five decades. Its scrupulous attention to detail and precision in exposition and explanation is matched by the greatest accuracy in all associated detail. In addition, it continues to capture student interest through its personalized human setting and current examples. The 14th Edition of Introduction to Logic, written by Copi, Cohen & McMahon, is dedicated to the many thousands of students and their teachers - at hundreds of universities in the United States and around the world - who have used its fundamental methods and techniques of correct reasoning in their everyday lives.

"There are obvious benefits to be gained from the study of logic: heightened ability to express ideas clearly and concisely, increased skill in defining one's terms, enlarged capacity to formulate arguments rigorously and to analyze them critically. But the greatest benefit, in my judgment, is the recognition that reason can be applied in every aspect of human affairs. Democratic institutions require that citizens think for themselves, discuss problems freely with one another, and decide issues on the basis of deliberation and the weighing of evidence. Through the study of logic, we can acquire not only practice in reasoning, but also respect for reason, and thus reinforce and secure the values we prize. To help achieve these goals, a textbook of logic should contain an ample selection of illustrations and exercises of human, scientific, and philosophical interest. These should have been presented by serious writers in honest efforts to solve real problems. Ideally, they should include fallacies as well as paradigms of demonstrations. This new edition contains over three hundred new examples and exercises, many of which were selected specifically to fulfill this requirement. Others were introduces to provide a more gradual transition from easier to more challenging exercises that the students should master in order to acquire logical skills as well as logical understanding."--Preface.--Publisher description.
