About this title

Synopsis

First Notions of Logic: Preparatory to the Study of Geometry is a book written by Augustus De Morgan in 1840. The book is an introduction to the fundamental concepts of logic and serves as a preparatory text for the study of geometry. It covers topics such as propositions, terms, syllogisms, and the laws of thought. De Morgan's approach to logic is heavily influenced by the work of George Boole, and he introduces the concept of algebraic logic, which would later become a significant field of study. The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to both beginners and those with some knowledge of logic. First Notions of Logic is an essential text for anyone interested in the history of logic or the foundations of mathematics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
