david coady university of tasmania learn more add to cart first order logic second edition john heil in his introduction to this most welcome republication and second edition of his logic text heil clarifies his aim in writing and revising this book i believe that anyone unfamiliar with the subject who set out to learn formal logic could do so relying solely on this book that in any case is what i set out to create in writing an introduction to first order logic heil has certainly accomplished this with perhaps the most explanatorily thorough and pedagogically rich text i ve personally come across heil s text stands out as being remarkably careful in its presentation and illuminating in its explanations especially given its relatively short length when compared to the average logic textbook it hits all of the necessary material that must be covered in an introductory deductive logic course and then some it also takes occasional excursions into side topics successfully whetting the reader s appetite for more advanced studies in logic the book is clearly written by an expert who has put in the effort for his readers bothering at every step to see the point and then explain it clearly to his readers heil has found some very clever original ways to introduce motivate and otherwise teach this material the author s own special expertise and perspective especially when it comes to tying philosophy of mind linguistics and philosophy of language into the lessons of logic make for a creative and fresh take on basic logic with its unique presentation and illuminating explanations this book comes about as close as a text can come to imitating the learning environment of an actual classroom indeed working through its presentations carefully the reader feels as

and eric salem as one would expect from the team of brann kalkavage and salem their edition of plato s meno is a fine one the translation meets their stated goal of remaining as faithful as possible to the greek while using lively colloquial english their notes are consistently helpful and will be particularly useful to those readers willing to explore the nuances of plato s extraordinary prose their introduction is clear and compact and it highlights the most philosophically important themes of the dialogue one particularly useful feature of this edition is the manner in which it displays the diagrams socrates draws in order to illustrate his famous square within a square instead of relegating them to the notes it integrates them into the text of the dialogue itself readers are able to follow along and watch socrates actually construct them david roochnik boston university this trio from st john s has produced the most high fidelity english translation of the meno available the introduction offers a no nonsense summary of the dialogue and ample footnotes alert the reader to important greek terms while also situating significant claims in their historical context as well as
