Synopsis

This book introduces readers to the study of logic, the systematic study of reasoning and other thought processes, with the aim of using logic to arrive at the knowledge of truth. Logic is different from psychology, which studies the vital acts of human reason, but it considers them in so far as they are cognitions of objects, objective representations, furnished by the exercise of thought and in virtue of thought. The book goes on to explain how logic directs its operations towards the true, and examines the divisions of logic and its principles and nature. The author delves into the elements of logical order and their fundamental identity, examining the abstract character of concepts, and explores the object and division of concepts.
