Description
Deduction Introductory Symbolic Logic presents an efficient and elegant presentation of classical first-order logic.
It combines a truth tree system based on the work of Jeffrey with a natural deduction system inspired by Kalish and Montague.
The book also covers extensions and revisions of classical logic, including modal logic, many-valued logic, fuzzy logic, intuitionistic logic, counterfactuals, deontic logic, common sense reasoning, and quantified modal logic. Problem sets are included to help students progress gradually from easier to more difficult problems.
