The Elements Of Logic

The Elements of Logic by Robert Latta is a comprehensive guide that covers the fundamental principles and concepts of logic. The book is designed to provide readers with a clear understanding of the basic principles of reasoning and argumentation, as well as the various types of logical fallacies and how to avoid them. The book is divided into several sections, with each section covering a different aspect of logic. The first section covers the basic principles of logic, including the definition of terms, the structure of arguments, and the rules of inference. The second section focuses on deductive reasoning, including syllogisms, categorical propositions, and propositional logic. The third section covers inductive reasoning, including analogies, generalizations, and causal reasoning. The final section covers informal fallacies, including ad hominem attacks, straw man arguments, and false dichotomies. Throughout the book, Latta provides numerous examples and exercises to help readers understand and apply the concepts covered in each section. The Elements of Logic is an essential resource for anyone looking to improve their critical thinking and reasoning skills.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
