Okay, so this is a textbook for a Logic course, why am I reviewing it? Because this is a small, concise, and infinitely helpful book that EVERYONE should read at least once. It is a textbook in the sense that Stunk & White's handbook of writing is, more of a perfect quick reference guide for how to do stuff you'll be doing everyday, every time you talk to someone, think about something, or consider if something makes sense or not. This little book teaches you clearly how to see if the basic argument behind something is flawed, even if it sounds good and how to avoid making the same mistakes and looking a fool. Main points covered are Logical Fallacies, Categorical Sentences, Unions and Inclusion. A book that should be on every shelf, and have been read.
