Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written in a clear, precise and user-friendly style, Logic as a Tool: A Guide to Formal Logical Reasoning is intended for undergraduates in both mathematics and computer science, and will guide them to learn, understand and master the use of classical logic as a tool for doing correct reasoning. It offers a systematic and precise exposition of classical logic with many examples and exercises, and only the necessary minimum of theory. The book explains the grammar, semantics and use of classical logical languages and teaches the reader how grasp the meaning and translate them to and from natural language. It illustrates with extensive examples the use of the most popular deductive systems -- axiomatic systems, semantic tableaux, natural deduction, and resolution -- for formalising and automating logical reasoning both on propositional and on first-order level, and provides the reader with technical skills needed for practical derivations in them. Systematic guidelines are offered on how to perform logically correct and well-structured reasoning using these deductive systems and the reasoning techniques that they employ. •Concise and systematic exposition, with semi-formal but rigorous treatment of the minimum necessary theory, amply illustrated with examples •Emphasis both on conceptual understanding and on developing practical skills •Solid and balanced coverage of syntactic, semantic, and deductive aspects of logic •Includes extensive sets of exercises, many of them provided with solutions or answers •Supplemented by a website including detailed slides, additional exercises and solutions For more information browse the book's website at: https://logicasatool.wordpress.com

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Second edition of the introductory guidebook to the basic principles of constructing sound arguments and criticising bad ones. Non-technical in approach, it is based on 186 examples, which Douglas Walton, a leading authority in the field of informal logic, discusses and evaluates in clear, illustrative detail. Walton explains how errors, fallacies, and other key failures of argument occur. He shows how correct uses of argument are based on sound strategies for reasoned persuasion and critical responses. This edition takes into account many developments in the field of argumentation study that have occurred since 1989, many created by the author. Drawing on these developments, Walton includes and analyzes 36 new topical examples and also brings in work on argumentation schemes. Ideally suited for use in courses in informal logic and introduction to philosophy, this book will also be valuable to students of pragmatics, rhetoric, and speech communication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some of our earliest experiences of the conclusive force of an argument come from school mathematics: faced with a mathematical proof, we cannot deny the conclusion once the premises have been accepted. Behind such arguments lies a more general pattern of 'demonstrative arguments' that is studied in the science of logic. Logical reasoning is applied at all levels, from everyday life to advanced sciences, and a remarkable level of complexity is achieved in everyday logical reasoning, even if the principles behind it remain intuitive. Jan von Plato provides an accessible but rigorous introduction to an important aspect of contemporary logic: its deductive machinery. He shows that when the forms of logical reasoning are analysed, it turns out that a limited set of first principles can represent any logical argument. His book will be valuable for students of logic, mathematics and computer science.

It is exclusively prepared for the students who wish to appear for campus recruitment screening test and graduate/post graduate students appearing for various competitive examinations in Quantitative Aptitude and Reasoning. The main objective of this volume is to guide the students to solve the problems within the stipulated time and that too with the higher degree of accuracy. Organized in two parts—Quantitative Aptitude (Part I) and Reasoning (Part II)—it helps students to apply basic mathematical and reasoning concepts to a range of quantitative and reasoning problems. The separate sections are devoted to verbal and nonverbal reasoning. It sharpens the ability to apply analytical and logical thinking while gathering and analysing information, designing and testing solutions to problems, and formulating plans. This book is a valuable resource for conducting training programmes/workshops to train students in problem solving techniques in Mathematical Aptitude. It would equally be useful to the candidates appearing for quantitative aptitude and reasoning test conducted in various competitive examinations of graduate level.NEW TO THIS EDITION • Numerous Reasoning questions (with explanatory answers) asked in recent placement tests and competitive exams • New topics on • Four figure series • Choosing one element of a similarly related pair • Choosing set of similarly related figures • Detecting one element of each of the two related pair • Detecting the relationship and choosing the correct substitute • Choosing the odd figure • Choosing a similar figure • Rule 4 [(i) and (ii)] in Rule detection
