The Elements of Logic: A Text-Book for Schools and Colleges; The Elementary Lessons in Logic (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Elements of Logic: A Text-Book for Schools and Colleges; The Elementary Lessons in LogicExcept in a few places, where special notice is given, I have abstained from putting forward any views not commonly accepted by teachers of logic; and I have throughout devoted more attention to describing clearly and simply the doctrines in which logicians generally agree, than discussing the points in which there is a difference of opinion. The recent logical discoveries of Sir W. Hamilton, Archbishop Thomson, Prof. De Morgan, and especially the late Prof. Boole, cannot yet be fully adopted in an ele mentary work, but I have attempted to give a clear notion of the results to which they inevitably lead.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
