Description: Socratic Logic : A Logic Text Using Socratic Method, Platonic Questions, and Aristotelian Principles, Hardcover by Kreeft, Peter; Dougherty, Trent (EDT), ISBN 1587318083, ISBN-13 9781587318085, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US This new and revised edition of Peter Kreeft&;s Socratic Logic is updated, adding new exercises and more complete examples, all with Kreeft&;s characteristic clarity and wit. Since its introduction in the spring of 2004, Socratic Logic has proven to be a different type of logic text: (1) This is the only complete system of classical Aristotelian logic in print. The &;old logic&; is still the natural logic of the four language arts (reading, writing, speaking, and listening). Symbolic, or &;mathematical,&; logic is not for the humanities. (How often have you heard someone argue in symbolic logic?) (2) This book is simple and user-friendly. It is highly interactive, with a plethora of exercises and a light, engaging style. (3) It is practical. It is designed for do-it-yourselfers as well as classrooms. It emphasizes topics in proportion to probable student use: ., interpreting ordinary language, not only analyzing but also constructing effective arguments, smoking out hidden assumptions, making &;argument maps,&; and using Socratic method in various circumstances. (4) It is philosophical. Its exercises expose students to many classical quotations, and additional chapters introduce philosophical issues in a Socratic manner and from a commonsense, realistic point of view. It prepares students for reading Great Books rather than Dick and Jane, and models Socrates as the beginner&;s ideal teacher and philosopher.
