Review: Symbolic Logic and the Game of Logic

Symbolic Logic and the Game of Logic by Lewis Carroll

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



Carroll's book is an engaging, even playful, introduction to Basic Logic. Especially his diagram method I find particularly illustrative and worth of today's classroom. Also very enlightening is his side-by-side comparison of his method and those of Euclid and Venn. The second book, "The Game of Logic", is a literal board game based on syllogisms based on his method.

Very little archaisms get in the way, here.
