Excerpt from An Elementary LogicIt is the aim of this book to aid young students in gaining a comprehension of the essential principles of correct thinking.It aims also to assist those teachers who find the use of a text-book in this subject advantageous. The book contains little that is original. It follows the main tradition of logical doctrine, with such omissions and changes in method as I, during years of experience, have found it desirable to make in an elementary course in logic.The more important deviations from traditional logic will be found in the treatment of Judgment and the Syllogism and in the part entitled The Logic of Science. I have emphasized the distinction between Judgment and Propositions by giving to the former a separate exposition, preceding the discussion of Propositions.In the treatment of the Syllogism, some technical matter, particularly that pertaining to moods, has been omitted, and changes have been made in the arrangement of topics which it is hoped will facilitate the comprehension of this subject. I hope I have made some improvement in the treatment of what is customarily called Inductive Logic, or Induction.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
