Sinossi

Exploring Modern Logic is a student-friendly and highly engaging introduction to symbolic logic and its real-world applications. Assuming no prior knowledge of logic or philosophy, this book gives students the skills to accomplish quite easily such tasks as symbolizing statements and writing proofs that have historically been perceived as difficult. The book teaches students how to evaluate the logical strength of arguments on any subject, whether or not they know anything about the subject. Employing a strong sense of humor, the book acquaints students with the most common logical fallacies to which they are exposed every day, especially on social media and television, and reveals why each one is a fallacy. By enabling students to identify the role each statement in an argument plays, the book equips students to be good readers and good thinkers, thereby helping them to become better writers. In sum, this book makes learning modern logic fun for introductory students and is therefore ideal for use in a one-semester undergraduate logic course.
