About the Author William H.
Logic and Philosophy covers a variety of elementary formal and informal types of reasoning, including a chapter on traditional Logic that culminates in a treatment of Aristotle\'s Philosophy of science; a truth-functional Logic chapter that examines Wittgenstein\'s Philosophy of language, logic, and mysticism; and sections on induction, analogy, and fallacies that incorporate material on mind-body dualism, pseudoscience, the "raven paradox," and proofs of God.
