A CONCISE INTRODUCTION TO LOGIC covers the standard subjects for any logic course in neatly packaged capsules of teaching. Users report that this text is more clearly written than any other text, the style is streamlined, and peculiar quirks and technicalities are avoided. The material is presented in an integrated fashion so that the elements fit together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, thus increasing student comprehension. Visual aids that reiterate the central points appear throughout the text, key terms are projected in boldface type, hundreds of examples illustrate the main ideas, and more than 2,000 carefully selected exercises, many from real life sources, sharpen student understanding. Even students with deficient learning skills can master the content, and the broad range of topics provides considerable flexibility in course design.
