Excerpt from An Introduction to Logic

The first the chapters of the following treatise are intended for beginners; and nine of them are reprinted with but slight alterations from a series of articles on Logic contributed by me to Our School Times, a periodical then attached to Monaghan Diocesan School. They were written at the request of Dr. Hime, the Head Master, who was also the editor of the periodical in question, with the object of making the subject intelligible to advanced school-boys and other beginners who might be among the readers of the paper. Those who desire to become acquainted with the fundamental principles of Deductive Logic only may confine their attention to these chapters; but it will be seen that the subsequent chapters intended for those who desire to carry their studies farther occupy about two-thirds of the book. I do not think the order in which the various matters treated of are dealt with will occasion any embarrassment to the student who reads on to the end; while for him who means to stop at the elementary principles no other order would have been suitable.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book introduces you to the fundamental principles of deductive logic. It concerns itself only with what writers term deduction, to the exclusion of induction. Deductive logic helps determine whether an argument is valid or not by providing rules for drawing inferences from one or more propositions. The book takes the view that all our experience of the mortality of mankind does not refute, for example, the narrative of the translation of Elijah into heaven. While the science of induction may provide seemingly indisputable probabilities, in this book the author argues that deductive conclusions are the only ones that possess a conclusive and indisputable character. The author has taken the responsibility to lay down certain premises to be true and demonstrates what can be conclusively inferred from them on that assumption. However, the assumption itself may be incorrect, in which case all inferences from it would fall along with it. 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. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781440086212_0
