Synopsis
Excerpt from Chapters in Logic
In excess and extremes; who have no bond to hold them firm to the truths which they know, since they are attached to them rather by chance than by any clear insight or who, on the other hand, entrench themselves in their Opin' ions with such obstinacy, that they will not listen to any. Thing that may undeceive them who determine rashly about that of which they are ignorant, which they do not under stand, and which, perhaps, no one ever can understand; 'who make no difference between one speech and another, or judge of the truth of things by the tone of voice alone,-'he who speaks fluently and impressively being in the right, he who has some difficulty in explaining himself, or dis plays some warmth, in the wrong: they know nothing beyond this.

About the Author
Dr Hamilton comes from a background of clinical and academic general practice. His medical career began in hospital medicine, including 2 ? years as a physician in Malawi, followed by 11 years as a principal (and senior partner) in general practice. He is now a full-time primary care researcher, funded by the NHS. His main research interest is in diagnosis in primary care, particularly that of cancer, and he recently completed three diagnostic studies for the Department of Health on colorectal, prostate and lung cancers. The colorectal results in particular have borne fruit, in that further studies on a tool for earlier diagnosis of this cancer have been funded by the DoH.
Dr Hamilton is a founder member of the NRCI Primary Care Studies Development Group (the umbrella organisation for cancer studies in primary care) and the NICE Guideline Development Group for CFS/ME. He has written over 50 peer-reviewed publications, largely in the field of diagnosis, with cancer being the largest topic. Dr Hamilton also co-edited the 2nd edition of 'Orthopaedics in Primary Care', which involved the key skill of translating orthopaedic surgeons language into English! His writing is not just the dry format of research papers: he has written editorials for the BMJ and BJGP, lighter pieces for the back pages of the BJGP and a lengthy piece on constipation for BMJ learning!
As well as his medical qualifications he has a certificate in literature (with merit!) from the University of Exeter.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a novel approach to logic, by combining the formal laws of thought with insights from applied or practical logic.

The book's unique approach makes it accessible to a wide range of readers, regardless of their background in philosophy or logic. The authors provide clear and concise explanations of the basic concepts of logic, as well as practical guidance on how to apply these concepts to real-world situations.

The insights presented in this book are essential for anyone who wants to improve their critical thinking skills, make better decisions, and understand the world around them.
