Description
Formal Logic is an undergraduate text suitable for introductory, intermediate, and advanced courses in symbolic logic. The book's nine chapters offer thorough coverage of truth-functional and quantificational logic, as well as the basics of more advanced topics such as set theory and modal logic. Complex ideas are explained in plain language that doesn't presuppose any background in logic or mathematics, and derivation strategies are illustrated with numerous examples. Translations, tables, trees, natural deduction, and simple meta-proofs are taught through over 400 exercises. A companion website (complimentary for anyone who buys the book) offers supplemental practice software and tutorial videos.
