Description

This back-to-basics mix of informal and formal logic evolved from Ronald Pine's efforts to make logic relevant and interesting to his students. With student-friendly examples, such as how to use logic when shopping for a car, Pine works to remove intimidating perceptions of logic and replace them with opportunities to build critical reasoning skills and confidence. Pine emphasizes relevance, continuity, and depth.
