Epstein presents modern logic so readably that both beginning and advanced students will benefit. Epstein helps readers to see logic as the forrmalization of reasoning that needs and deserves a semantic foundation. Propositional Logics includes many worked examples, exrcieses, and open problems that illustrate the scope and limitations of modern logic. A special appendix offers a uniquely helpful summary of the syntax and semantics of the propositional logics studies in this book.- Back cover ER -
