Logic: A Complete Introduction: A step-by-step Teach Yourself guide to use at home, school or college

Very good book

Interesting, good effort devoted to explain different types of logic.

A classic. Excellent reading.

An interesting read, clear examples good price

After a lifetime of dabbling in philosophy without tackling logic, I bought a couple of books on the subject and was soon totally lost. This book saved me. It starts off with the basics and moves on to categorical logic, then propositional logic, then predicate logic. What I particularly liked about the author's approach was that she never takes the reader's understanding for granted, but illustrates every point with discursive explanations, examples, and exercises. I can't recommend the book highly enough to anyone wanting a basic grounding in what can appear to the beginner to be a daunting subject.

I could not get into this book at all.

This is probably one of (if not) the best introductory books available on logic and reasoning that I’ve come across. And for someone like myself, who often works hard to follow the reasoning and local steps of an argument, Logic: A Complete Introduction by Siu-Fan Lee seems an ideal starting place. However, after the first couple of chapters the book becomes rather difficult and, I felt, more useful to students of formal logic than to inquisitive, general readers like myself, who need huge amounts of staying power and familiarity with new terminology and concepts to remain onboard if one is to persevere through the whole of the book. Nonetheless, this is the best (and most basic!) book on logic available and Siu-Fan Lee does an admirable job, considering the complexity of the subject, at explaining the subject for both beginners and more advanced students of logic. I should add that I have the kindle version which is easy to navigate, and diagrams and tables within the text are easily enlarged so they can be seen clearly. I hope you find my review helpful.

A great introduction to logic. Recommended

(English) I used this book as a refresher and as an introductory book on logics. Its is definitely a information resource better than those inside introductory mathematical books. My interest concerning this topic came from the study of mathematical proofs, which are essentially applications of deductive logical reasoning. (Portuguese) Usei esse livro como uma fonte de revisão e uma introdução à lógica. Trata-se de uma fonte melhor do que as fornecidas em livros de matemática introdutória. Meu interesse surgiu a partir do estudo de provas matemáticas que, de modo geral, nada mais são do que a aplicação do raciocínio lógico dedutivo.

İçeriğine henüz bakamadım, ama bir -ingilizce- felsefe öğrencisi iseniz kesinlikle böyle bir yan kaynağa ihtiyacınız var.

Excellent introduction general to logic for beginners

This is a great book for the new learner of logic. By the way, the author replies questions.

Imbatível em precisão, concisão e exposição da Lógica elementar simbólica e categórica. Não trata da Lógica indutiva, entretanto. Mas merece cinco etrelas pelo que expõe bem.
