Description

An Introduction to Formal Logic by Peter Smith is a comprehensive guide to the fundamental aims and basic elements of formal logic. This accessible book introduces the languages of propositional and predicate logic, and develops natural deduction systems for evaluating arguments.

Extensively revised and illustrated with worked examples and exercises, this second edition provides a firm basis for further work in formal and philosophical logic. The author's discussion is enriched by illuminating philosophical commentary, making it an ideal text for a first logic course or as a foundation for more advanced study.
