Synopsis

Symbolic Logic is a book written by John Venn in 1881. It is a comprehensive introduction to the principles of symbolic logic, a branch of mathematical logic that uses symbols and formal rules to represent and manipulate logical propositions. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the principles of deductive reasoning, the use of logical symbols to represent propositions and arguments, the construction and evaluation of truth tables, and the application of symbolic logic to various fields such as mathematics, philosophy, and science. The book also includes numerous examples and exercises to help readers develop their understanding of symbolic logic. Overall, Symbolic Logic is a classic text that remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the principles of logic and reasoning.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Logic, in the I ntroduction, that nothing further need be said on this head. The substance of most of these chapters has been given in my college lectures, our present intercollegiate scheme of lecturing (now in operation for about twelve years) offering great facilities for the prosecution of any special studies which happen to suit the taste and capacity of some particular lecturer and a selection of the students. I mention this in order to explain what might seem a disproportionate devotion of time to one peculiar development of Logic. Besides Mr C. J. Monro, who has repeated the kind help he gave on a former occasion, I have to thank several friends and fellow-lecturers (amongst whom I must mention Mr H. Sidgwick, Mr H. S. Foxwell, Mr J. Ward, and Mr J. N. Keynes, before whom several of these chapters were read and discussed) for many valuable suggestions and criticisms. I must also express my obligations to Prof. G. Groom Robertson, of University College, London, for his kindness in procuring me several rare works from the valuable library of nis college. I should add here that the substance of some of the following chapters has already appeared elsewhere: viz. Chap. I in Mind (J uly, 1880), Chap, vin the Philosophical Magazine (J uly, 1880), and Chap, xx in the Proc. of the Cambridge Philosophical Society (D ec., 1880), but all of these have been rewritten and enlarged. The general view adopted in this work was sketched out in an article in the Princeton Review of September, 1880. CAMIIRIDOI, A pril 7, I f Wl.
