Synopsis:

This work covers all the standard topics for any introductory logic course in individual learning units. Known for its concise, direct style that emphasizes clarity, this text aims to avoid the peculiar quirks, technicalities and wordiness of others.

Review: "Hurley has satisfied my goals for logic classes for a number of years. I will continue to use it. I believe that its greatest strength is that it is primarily directed toward students, rather than logicians." "The book has gotten steadily better. Note: it was a good book to begin with." "I have compared Hurley's book to several texts and have found it to be by far the best." "Overall the book accomplishes MY goals and I have no plans to make a change." "Several times a semester I ask students for anonymous written one-minute feedback on what they would keep, modify or trash about the course. While there are always a few who trash me, their teaching assistant, the acoustics in the lecture hall, the CD, logic, probability, general education or proofs, it has been several years since anyone has proposed relegating the text to the flames."
