Description
Mathematical Logic by Willard Van Orman Quine is a comprehensive introduction to the study of mathematical logic. This book covers a wide range of topics in logic, including propositional logic, predicate logic, set theory, and the foundations of mathematics.
The author's approach to logic is highly formal and mathematical, emphasizing the use of symbols and the manipulation of formal systems. Quine begins by covering propositional logic, including truth tables and the laws of logic, before moving on to predicate logic, introducing quantifiers and logical equivalence.
This book provides a rigorous and thorough introduction to the study of logic, suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in mathematics, philosophy, and computer science. A facsimile reprint of the original work, this edition may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
