Synopsis
Excerpt from Elements of Deductive Logic
This treatise is designed as a text-book for undergraduates. It comprises the body of approved logical doctrine, so that in a limited time a student may acquire a rounded knowledge of the fundamental forms of thought, be profited by the excellent discipline of the study, and prepared for the pursuit of philosophical sciences.
Those who wish to go beyond the elements of logic will find much additional matter in my larger work, entitled "The Theory of Thought," designed especially for universities. In my "Elements of Psychology" are explained the relation of the idea as a mental image to the notion as a product of thought, and the various mental processes involved in thinking. In both works many references will be found to authorities and to the literature of the subject.
In the preparation of the present text, I have tried to be clear, simple, and true, and to mitigate the natural severity of the subject by copious illustration.

Présentation de l'éditeur
Many standard exercises have been retained, and many new ones introduced. They have been carefully arranged in progressive order, in correspondence with the increasing complexity of the subject. I would suggest that the working of the praxes alone, without any recitation of the text, will insure a more satisfactory knowledge of elementary logic than the closest reproduction of the test, the praxes being omitted. In the chapter on Fallacies, I have adhered to the original Aristotelic distribution, believing that it should be well known to every student of logic, and that none better has been proposed. No treatment of induction is attempted. But, deeply impressed with the importance of this branch logic, especially in its relation to the physical scices, I hope to prepare at an early day a compan1 volume onE lements of Inductive Logic, and so mplete the system.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the fundamental principles of logic, a science that has been studied for centuries. The author takes a deep dive into the necessary forms of thought, uncovering the laws that govern how we reason and understand the world. The book delves into the three primary laws of thought: Identity, Contradiction, and Excluded Middle. These laws, presented as axioms, form the foundation of all logical reasoning. The author also explores the distinction between the qualitative and quantitative wholes, providing a framework for understanding the different ways we conceive of things. Throughout the text, the author explores the relationship between concepts, marks, and their intension and extension, offering a comprehensive understanding of how ideas are formed and related to each other. The book also covers the process of logical division, how we classify and categorize our thoughts, and the importance of clear and distinct concepts for sound reasoning. This book offers a rigorous exploration of the essential principles of logic, providing a foundation for understanding the structure and validity of human thought.
