Originally published in 1941. Professor Ushenko treats of current
problems in technical Logic, involving Symbolic Logic to a marked
extent. He deprecates the tendency, in influential quarters, to
regard Logic as a branch of Mathematics and advances the
intuitionalist theory of Logic. This involves criticism of Carnap,
Russell,Wittgenstein, Broad and Whitehead, with additional
discussions on Kant and Hegel. The author believes that the union
of Philosophy and Logic is a natural one, and that an exclusively
mathematical treatment cannot give an adequate account of Logic. A
fundamental characteristic of Logic is comprehensiveness, which
brings out the affinity between logic and philosophy, for to be
comprehensive is the aim of philosophical ambition.

This book celebrates one of Oxford's most distinctive areas, close
to the city centre. Previously a slum of workers' cottages, plenty
of pubs, and even some brothels, today it is vibrant and
developing. Jericho was Oxford's first planned suburb, given
particular distinctiveness by its canalside location, and was
thoroughly working class until the latter 20th century. Yet it was
also the cradle of the Pre-Raphaelites, source of the very first
copies of Alice in Wonderland, the catalyst for Inspector Morse, a
nursery of the Oxford music scene, and the literary inspiration for
authors such as Thomas Hardy, R. D. Blackmore, John Betjeman, and
Sir Philip Pullman. This book is a visual celebration with new
pictures, paintings, and illustrations, plus an accessible guide to
the history of Greater Jericho and a nod to its bright future as a
centre for culture.

What if every choice you made led to positive, productive results?
How would your days be different if you so clearly understood your
purpose that the words you spoke and the actions you took always
added value to the people around you? How would this influence your
family? How would it affect your friends? Would your income change?
Would your career path be different? What would your life be like
if you weren't so busy just doing "stuff"? Can the tyranny of the
urgent be overshadowed by the significant and substantive
possibility of a life lived with purpose? "Welcome Home", is a
6-week journey for you and your family. Through personal
interaction with scripture, you are invited to invest unhurried
focus on timeless truths that influence every decision. Life is
going to be busy. Let's be busy doing things that matter most.
