Reviews / Votes
"This is easily the BEST intro logic book ever written.It's the only MATH book on logic out there that is easy to understand and yet formal enough to be considered 'mathematical.'"--BookInspections.com, May 26, 2013 Reasons for This Book's Success "Rigor, integrity and coherence of overall purpose, introducing students to the practice of logic ..." --Douglas Cannon, University of Washington "The book is clearly and carefully written. I adopted this text because of its detailed and rigorous treatment of the predicate calculus, detailed and optimal treatment of the incompleteness phenomena, standard notation as developed by the Berkeley school." --Karel Prikry, University of Minnesota "It is mathematically rigorous [and] it has more examples than other books ... I definitely would use a new edition of this book." --Sun-Joo Chin, University of Notre DameMore details
