Not worth the paper it's printed on.
28 Nov 2010
Format:Paperback
Restall presents an awkward introduction to formal logic. Explanations are convoluted and a chore to disseminate from the text. The book features several errors in both the main text and exercises which can only do harm to the reader. Explanations come across as muddled intertwined with a very casual and imprecise literary style. If you are looking for a straight forward and clear introduction to propositional and first order logic, look elsewhere.

Do not get the kindle edition

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I first bought the kindle edition of this book for a class I have this semester. I ended up buying the paperback due to formating issues on some symbols (such as the symbol for inference). This makes the book basically unusable on kindle, especially for a student since guessing at which symbol ought to be in the missing place is probably not wise.

This book is very concise and efficient introduction to Logic. I would highly recommend for boginners of logic. But Kindle edition has critical flaws in formatting. especially tables and boxes.
