"I would describe the book as a 'real logic book that is about as
accessible as it gets."
"The book develops formal logic rigorously, but with an approach
that students will find clear and accessible, especially with
respect to the explanations of key concepts and the featured
"walk-throughs" of proof techniques, etc."
