"Looks like an attractive text, pitched at an appropriate level and with good exercises. I have adopted it."--A.M. Ungar, SUNY at Albany"An excellent introduction to elementary logic. Rigorous yet accessible to the superior undergraduate student. The sections on extensions to classical logic are especially appreciated."--Jan A. Smucker, Hanover College"Of very real value, especially the final chapter on intuitionism and fuzzy logic--long overdue in introductory texts."--Patrick Grim, State University of New York at Stony Brook
