Martino Fine Books Introduction to Logic and to the Methodology of Deductive Sciences by Alfred Tarski Translated by Olaf Helmer-Hirschberg
2013 Reprint of 1941 Revised and Enlarged Edition. Exact facsimile of the original edition not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Tarski is considered one of the five greatest logicians of all time alongside Aristotle (384322 BCE) Boole (18151864) Frege (18481925) and Gödel. This book together with Aristotles Prior Analytics and Booles Laws of Thought should form the core of any logic library. This classic undergraduate treatment examines the deductive method in its first part and explores applications of logic and methodology in constructing mathematical theories in its second part. A thoughtprovoking introduction to the fundamentals and the perfect adjunct to courses in logic and the foundations of mathematics. Exercises appear throughout.show more
