- W4313172371 abstract "Extract The first edition of this book appeared in 2000. In 2016, Oxford University Press approached me concerning the possibility of a second edition. My initial reaction was that there was not a lot of point in this. If this had been a book on, say, international relations, it would certainly have been out of date by now. But logic develops, generally speaking, at a more measured pace. The material in the first edition is as good now as it was then. And I don’t think I can do a much better job of covering it for the intended audience. Finally, the book has been selling well, now having been translated into eight other languages (if I have kept count correctly). However, the Press pointed out to me that I had not used up all of my allotted 35,000 words in the first edition, and suggested that I might add a couple of new chapters. After pondering what I might add, this struck me as a very good idea. The first edition gives a sense of the basics of modern logic; but no more. Logic is a subject of great depth and beauty, and the material in the first edition gives no real sense of this. Two extra chapters would allow me to do so—at least to a limited extent: there is no hope of doing more than scratch the surface of the matter in a book of this nature. However, the new chapters do give the reader a ‘glimpse beyond’—or so I hope." @default.
