Introduction to Logic cover

Introduction to Logic offers one of the most clear, interesting and accessible introductions to what has long been considered one of the most challenging subjects in philosophy. Harry Gensler engages students with the basics of logic through practical examples and important arguments both in the history of philosophy and from contemporary philosophy. Using simple and manageable methods for testing arguments, students are led step-by-step to master the complexities of logic.
The companion LogiCola instructional program and various teaching aids (including a teacher's manual) are available from the book's website: www.routledge.com/textbooks/gensler_logic

'Gensler's book is easy to read, his examples are very clear, his points made very simply. Gensler has the rare ability to find a simpler path to profound matters. Introduction to Logic clearly guides students to grasp complex logical/philosophical points... He assists students by presenting easily remembered strategies for the clear application of the book's rules. His style encourages students' confidence both in understanding the issues involved and in their ability to work out complex problems.' - Thomas R. Foster, Ball State University 'Gensler's system is clear and straightforward. He presents his material in such a way that students feel encouraged as they grow their ability to perform logical operations... If ever a logic book deserved the attribute user-'friendly' then this is the one.' - Winifried Corduan, Taylor University
