This is a comprehensive introduction to the fundamentals of logic
(both formal logic and critical reasoning), with exceptionally
clear yet conversational explanations and a multitude of engaging
examples and exercises. Herrick's examples are on-point and fun,
often bringing in real-life situations and popular culture. And
more so than other logic textbooks, Introduction to Logic brings in
the history of philosophy and logic through interesting
boxes/sidebars and discussions, showing logic's relation to
philosophy. The book is especially suited for use in the "Open
Course Library," a comprehensive online logic course that is open
and free. Jointly funded by the state of Washington and the Bill
& Melinda Gates Foundation, the Logic Course is one of 80
hybrid courses available online at no charge to the more than
400,000 students in the Washington system. The course is also
available for logic courses throughout the US and the world. The
Logic Course is available online now. Herrick was chosen to develop
the Logic Course for the online Open Course Library. Here is a link
