Elements of Logic
8th Edition Revised
by Richard Whately
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK
This classical text, from 1844, was once dismissed as a mere reaffirmation of Aristotle’s doctrine of syllogistic reasoning, standing in opposition to the new logic of scientific induction that dominated the Modern era of logic and rhetoric. Yet today "Elements of Logic" again offers a number of useful principles for teaching reasoning and critical thinking to undergraduates, helping them to understand that common reasoning patterns are a constant across subjects and contexts.
