Overview
Logic is the science of reasoning and argument. It deals with an examination of the form of valid inference. Logic as an academic area, involves the classification of arguments, the study of semantics, fallacies and paradoxes. An argument is a set of premises that are constructed to establish a proposition. Critical thinking is the objective analysis of facts or situations using logic and rationality to form an informed judgment. Observation, analysis, interpretation, inference, explanation, evaluation and metacognition are inherent attributes of a critically thinking mind. This textbook is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex theories and principles of the philosophy of logic and critical thinking. It provides comprehensive insights into these fields. Coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make this book an invaluable source of knowledge.
