    5.0 out of 5 stars Logic is Enjoyable.

    Walter Sinnott-Armstong's Coursera Mooc is a revelation of inventive, skilled and very enjoyable of a subject seen as dull. This book is a recommended companion to the online course and an excellent book in its own right,

    5.0 out of 5 stars The book and on-line course were informative and mentally stimulating.

    This textbook and video course (on Coursera.org) have been quite informative and mentally stimulating. I had never considered carefully "dissecting" an argument to assess its validity. Neither had I realized the whole point of the exercise was to make a person's argument look its best, not worst! Thus far, the textbook and course have shown me how to excise unnecessary verbiage, red herrings, tangents and the like, until the conclusion is exposed as valid or invalid.

    4.0 out of 5 stars good value
    Reviewed in the United States on 30 October 2010
    Verified Purchase
    If you are fond of calculating the value of a book by the number of memes you get per dollar, then this book is a good value. However, I wonder if the text hasn't become a bit bloated after 8 editions. There is material covered lightly here that is the subject of entire separate books, yet no indication is given that a superficial treatment is being provided (for example, material from linguistics and decision theory). The material that is provided is generally described well - the explanations are clear and there are sufficient examples to fix concepts.
