Sam Adams said Elementary Logic. The 1st edition of this was in 196Elementary Logic Sam Adams The 1st edition of this was in 1964, the 2nd in 1972. Mates, a philosopher, is a very careful, exact, and clear writer. This is an admirable text as far as it goes, but it is not an introduction to logic for those with mathematical or metamathematical concerns. Although late in the book Mates discusses axiomatics and presents examples of axiomatic theories, and even provides a concise informative overview of the history of logic, his focus is on the meticulous set-up of the formal languages and the presentation of natura. , the "Elementary Logic" according to Sam Adams.

"a most rigorous textbook of logic" according to A Customer. There are so many textbooks of logic. It's just one of them. And it seems that it becomes (or has already become) out of date. But it has still the virtues that the author promised in its introduction. If we expect strictness and rigidity in the field of logic, it's the best textbook of that kind.It is mainly written from the point of the natural deduction, but it doesn't forget the axiomatic method. It first deals with the propositional logic, and second, the first-order logic. And it contains some features of metalogic. David Milliern said Lacking in Rigor for Such a Technical Subject. Let me begin by saying that the basis of my review's perspective is one that assesses this text as a pedagogical tool. It was used in a graduate course in logic I took. The book has a major shortcoming, which simply boggles my mind, namely, that it seems to have been designed for someone who has some degree of knowledge of the material intended to be conveyed. By that I mean that the book is great for students reviewing the material, but, for students trying to learn the material, it is a nightmare and next to useless. T
