It’s the tool for learning how to use other tools. It’s the bones that give a clenched fist its structure (and knuckles). With that in mind, we have painstakingly designedA Intermediate LogicA for everyday students, teachers, and parents who’ve never used truth tables or formal proofs of validity to work with syllogisms, but who know just how important and applicable learning logic is.A

How to easily determine consistency, self-contradiction, tautology, equivalence, and validity by using truth trees,
How to apply all these skills to real-life thinkers and writers wherever you encounter them,
An all-new optional unit on understanding digital logic, the “language” which modern gadgets (from digital alarm clock displays to computer processors) use to function.
