About this title

Synopsis

The Science of Logic is a comprehensive book written by P. Coffey that delves into the principles of accurate thinking and scientific methodology. The book is divided into three volumes, with the first volume titled ""Conception, Judgment and Inference."" In this volume, Coffey explores the fundamental concepts of logic, including the nature of concepts, the process of judgment and the role of inference in reasoning. He examines the different types of concepts, such as general and particular concepts, and how they relate to each other. Coffey also discusses the importance of judgment in the process of reasoning, and how it is used to evaluate the truth or falsity of propositions. The book also covers the role of inference in logical reasoning, including the different types of inference, such as deductive and inductive reasoning. Coffey provides numerous examples and exercises throughout the book to help readers better understand these concepts and apply them to their own thinking and problem-solving. Overall, The Science of Logic is a valuable resource for anyone interested in developing their critical thinking skills and understanding the principles of scientific methodology. It is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both students and professionals in a variety of fields.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
