Who knew a book on LOGIC would be so fascinating and at times addictive to get through? I think it's down to the fact that every piece of information in this is not only worth remembering, but applying. It's written brilliantly with examples on nearly every page and perfectly recaps information from previous chapters so the reader is on the same *page* as the author.

Honestly, this book is a must-read for everyone on the earth. If we all became more logical and consistent in our thinking, the world would be a better place... or would it? (we won't get into that here). In any case, it's an incredibly easy read (for the most part) and what is written within is fundamental in retaining and applying in everyday life. I will now use this as an intellectual guide when revising critical thinking skills and of course, specifically, the laws and correct application of logic. If you care about critical thinking and not being fallacious in reasoning... fret no more - buy this book.
