Book Description

1885767579 978-1885767578 May 1, 1996 1
Covering topics in logic too often reserved for a college course, Intermediate Logic simplifies various elements of propositional and symbolic logic, including truth tables and formal proofs of validity. While this textbook/workbook can be used for one year's worth of study, older students may work through Introductory Logic and Intermediate Logic in a school year. This basic key provides answers to the 35 exercises found in the Student textbook. Student lesson sections are not included.

More About the Author

My hero, Leonardo of Pisa, was born the same year that the famous tower of his birthplace went up (and though it was upright at the time, it began leaning soon thereafter). We share this odd bit of trivia; I was born in Seattle the same year (same month, actually) that the famous tower of that city (the Space Needle) was erected, in February of 1962 for the World's Fair.

My dad worked for Boeing (like most of his friends), and after graduating with a B.S. in M.E. in 1984 from Washington State University, I followed Dad, working on the 757 in Renton, Washington. While working at Boeing I met my lovely wife Giselle (she was on the AWACS program). We now have four children: Jamie, Josiah, Jacqueline, and Jonathan.

After five years I left engineering forever and moved my family to Moscow, Idaho, where since 1989 I have been teaching at Logos School. Logos is a private Christian school, and the flagship of ACCS. There I teach logic, calculus, physics, and rhetoric. I teach logic to 8th graders from the textbooks written by Doug Wilson and myself. I am grateful to God that so many others have benefited from these books.

I enjoy teaching, reading, acting, and playing games with my friends and family.

3.0 out of 5 stars Very Difficult, November 21, 2011
After completing the Introduction to Logic that precedes this book, I wanted more. So I ordered this book. I found it very difficult, and I'm sure it's not just me. I flew through chapters 1-5, but suddenly I got to exercise 6 and found it impossible to do the exercises. Information was missing, and I went back over the chapters, including doing extra reading online. I played around with the truth tables, getting nowhere until I reached the 'shorter truth tables', which I grasped after having to do extra reading online, due to insufficient or too complicated explanations in this book. I really enjoyed the shorter truth tables and flew along until chapter 15: Formal Proofs - ugh! I kept trying to understand, re-reading and there is no way I can get any further than these. So, I got through 2/3 of this book and am now giving up. Perhaps you need to be a maths whiz. Good luck if you attempt this book!

There were a couple of things that I found very useful; the Dilemma and the 3 ways to refute it and the different types of syllogisms.

Note also that the author is a fundamentalist Christian, and some of his syllogisms reflect this. Not everyone else takes that view of Christianity, but you can still have fun with these syllogisms by applying the same rules to refute them.
