A ground-breaking text for introductory logic courses, combining logical theory with engaging philosophical issues. Carefully explained and comprehensive in its coverage of truth-functional, modal and quantificational logic, the book is designed to be flexible in chapter order. Features: * PHILOSOPHICAL INTERLUDE section includes more than 40 pages on the existence of God, free will, and the perception of separate mind and body. * Multiple examples introduce each new concept, and the author's commentary provides exhaustive explanation not found in competing texts. * Over 2000 exercises (every fifth answered in the back of the book) progress from simple to challenging. * Chapter 5 provides a brief introduction to the philosophy of logic and discussion of POSSIBLE WORLDS. * Metavariables add structure to the teaching of truth-functional, quantificational and modal logic. * Chapters 6 and 7, covering modal logic, include discussion of truth trees and natural deduction. * A section of further readings directs students to related works and sources. * Solutions manual/instructor's manual gives correct answers to all exercises and includes support for instructors.
