Excerpt from The Organon, or Logical Treatises, of Aristole, Vol. 1 of 2
The investigation of the science of Mind, especially as to its element, Thought, is of so interesting a character as in great measure to reconcile the inquirer to the abstruseness of formal reasoning. The beauty of the flower, whilst concealing the ruggedness, is apt to withdraw our attention from the utility, of the soil on which it grows; and thus in like manner the charms of Idealism, ending but too frequently in visionary speculation, have obstructed the clear appreciation of the design and use of Logic. Not that we deny the connexion which must ever subsist between Logic, as the science of the laws of reasoning, and psychology; indeed the latter is constantly introduced in several topics of the Organon; but if we would derive real practical benefit from logical study, we must regard it as enunciative of the universal principle of inference, affording a direct test for the detection of fallacy, and the establishment of true conclusion.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating realm of thought and language, exploring the fundamental principles of reasoning and how we express our ideas through words. The author examines different types of words and their relationships, laying the groundwork for understanding how we form concepts and make sense of the world around us. Drawing on the works of earlier philosophers, the author presents a systematic framework for analyzing arguments and identifying fallacies. This framework, built upon the foundation of the syllogism, provides a powerful tool for clear and precise thinking. By dissecting the connections between words and their meanings, the author reveals the intricate ways in which language shapes our understanding. This exploration extends to concepts like substance, quantity, and relation, offering profound insights into the very nature of reality. Ultimately, this book equips readers with the ability to think critically and navigate the complexities of language, empowering them to engage in meaningful discourse and arrive at well-founded conclusions.
