Logic is synonymous with reason, judgment, sense, wisdom, and sanity. Being logical is the ability to create concise and reasoned arguments - arguments that build from given premises, using evidence, to a genuine conclusion. But mastering logical thinking also requires studying and understanding illogical thinking, both to sharpen one's own skills and to protect against incoherent or deliberately misleading reasoning. Elegant, pithy, and precise, Being Logical breaks logic down to its essentials through clear analysis, accessible examples, and focused insights.

Martha Barnette has spent two decades as the co-host of A Way with Words, lauded by Mary Norris in The New Yorker as “a virtual treasure house” and “‘Car Talk’ for Lexiphiles.” Over that time, she’s developed a keen sense of what fascinates people about language. They are curious about etymology and revel in slang, are surprised by regional vocabulary and celebrate linguistic diversity. Idioms both puzzle and delight word lovers, and they are eager to share family neologisms and that weird phrase Grandma always used to say.

What if the universe is not silent? What if reality is made not only of matter, energy, and law—but of signs? Charles Sanders Peirce was one of the most original minds in American philosophy: a scientist, logician, mathematician, founder of pragmatism, and creator of one of the most powerful theories of signs ever developed. Yet his vision reaches far beyond language or symbolism. For Peirce, signs are not merely words on a page. A fossil is a sign of vanished life. Smoke is a sign of fire. A symptom is a sign of disease. A mathematical equation is a sign of hidden structure. A scientific...

THE LAB COAT IS JUST A COSTUME. WELCOME TO THE REALITY OF SCIENCE. Every day, you bet your life on Science. You trust the airplane to fly. You trust the medicine to cure.

It is a human story of ego, rebellion, politics, and the terrifying realization that the universe does not care about our ...

In his Introduction, Abraham Kaplan places Dewey's philosophy of art within the context of his pragmatism.

This book, The New Logic of Tao Philosophy《老子原論 》, restores the logical structure of Tao Te Ching. The original Tao Te Ching already had a clear logical structure, but it was distorted by traditional Taoism. As a result, the Tao Te Ching became an incomprehensible book. It was not until 1973 that a new version of the Tao Te Ching was discovered in the Mawangdui 馬王堆in Changsha 長沙 (around 200 BC). We can re-analyze the first chapter to show the original logical structure. Laozi believes that Yu 有 and Wu 無 are only two opposite ways to see a thing. Each is a name. ...

En el Discurso del método, Descartes parece buscar y moverse en un elegante equilibrio entre la crítica y la prudencia, de tal forma que su obra, aparte del valor puramente reflexivo, se podría percibir como una sugestiva propuesta de conducta vital. Persiste en una separación entre fe religiosa y trabajo científico que se corresponde enteramente con las necesidades filosóficas de su contexto social histórico.

For philosophers, a fallacy is an error in reasoning: a piece of bad logic. Just as it is a good idea to avoid eating bad food, it is a good idea to avoid bad reasoning. Unfortunately, bad reasoning is all too common—it pours out of social media and infests the web like a swarm of venomous spiders. Perhaps even worse than the fallacies imposed on people are the self-inflicted fallacies. These can lead people to make poor decisions about matters great and small. Fortunately, there is a defense against bad reasoning, namely knowledge. This concise book provides the reader with definitions, ...
