Logic: The Basics (Hardcover)

~ (Author)

Editorial Reviews

Review

'This is an excellent introduction to logic: it is clear, careful, and concise. Every student of logic should find it helpful. What makes the book particularly valuable is the development of paracomplete and paraconsistent logics alongside classical logic. This distinctive approach will deepen students' appreciation and understanding of logic.' -- David Efird, University of York, UK 'Beall provides a unique and refreshing introduction both to classical logic and to some of the interesting issues that motivate going beyond classical logic. This text contains one of the most accessible introductions to paracomplete and paraconsistent logics available. As such, it fills an important gap in the literature.' -- James R. Beebe, University at Buffalo, USA
