Synopsis
In Logic, Watts address proper thinking under the four basic functions of the human mind: perception, judgment, reasoning, and disposition. In part one, Watts addresses human perception, the cultivation of ideas, and how we associate them with words. In part two, Watts treats human judgment and its ability to construct various kinds of propositions, while giving guidance for avoiding the formation of bad judgments. Part three covers our ability to reason, giving instruction on the use of syllogisms for constructing a good argument. Part four discusses the mind's disposition as a method of arranging our thoughts for better understanding and memory.

Review
Fuzzy thinking is one of the great sins of our age. Christians who seek a return to the clear-mindedness which characterized the church of previous generations will certainly welcome the return of this great text. The clear devotion of Watts' hymns came from a clear mind--and that was no accident.
From the Publisher
Synopsis
This was the textbook on clear thinking for over 200 years at both Oxford and Cambridge, as well as in New England. The Puritans studied logic so much because they believed that if a person could not think clearly then he could not interpret the Bible correctly. Doug Wilson of Credenda-Agenda and one of the leading forces behind the Classical Christian school movement said of this work, "Fuzzy thinking is one of the great sins of this age. Christians who seek a return to the clear-mindedness which characterized the church of previous generations will certainly welcome the return of this great text of logic by Isaac Watts. The clear devotion of Watts' hymns came from a clear mind-and that was no accident." This book will be of particular interest to those in Classical Christian schools and homeschool settings, but it will also be of great interest to every Christian.

Hardback. Condition: Good. British theologian ISAC WATS (1674-1748) wrote more than 750 hymns, many of which are still performed today. But he was also a profoundly influential thinker in the realms of logic and general philosophy-he is said to have inspired his fellow Englishman, electricity pioneer Michael Faraday. This volume was an enormous success when it was first published in 1724, and went through numerous editions-this is a replica of an 1825 reprinting. (Watts' equally popular 1741 follow-up, The Improvement of the Mind, is also available from Cosimo). Here you'll learn: . What is logic . The differences between perception and ideas . How words and language are translated into knowledge . The power behind the human drive to name objects and concepts . Understanding judgment and prejudice . Reasoning and syllogism . And much more.
