Basic Logic

I found this book to be a very fine one for those first time logic learners. The book is worthwhile for re-reading on a regular basis. So far I re-read it two times. This book is very helpful for daily living. It comes in handy for computer programming when you have to specify conditions, in queries for example or for subsetting data. Gives a good review of invalid argument types so if you ever run into them, such as when politicians speak in such arguments (ex. "You are either with us or against us"), the better logically equiped reader will not be mislead. Start studying Lgic now!

I found it very helpful to read Basic Logic. The book explains logical reasoning in a step-by-step manner, starting with the very basic elements and concepts of logic and ending with last chapters on how to form arguments. The book explains very well how our own language can be constructed by using principles of logic. There is no question that we use logical reasoning on a daily basis. The book includes many examples of how symbolic logic can be translated into English and vice versa. The book also has review exercises at the end of each chater. So, this book should provide you with a lot of practice. I would recommend this book to anyone, who wants to be a more powerful thinker, reader, and learner. You don't have to be a genius in order to possess such a useful and necessary skill. You don't have to know advanced mathematics in order to be able to understand this book.
