Excerpt from The Use of Words in Reasoning
The two chief purposes of this book will best be seen by consulting Part IV.; which, by means of the references given in the text, may also be found of service to the reader pressed for time. Parts I. and II. are addressed to any one, however unaccustomed to the study of Logic, who is interested in the distinction between better and worse reasoning; Part III. to those who find it difficult to believe that there is much amiss with the usual account of the leading logical technicalities.
I have again to thank Mr. Carveth Read for the great help he has given me with the proof-sheets, in spite of our many differences of view, - differences the extent of which will, no doubt, undergo in course of time still further limitation and definition. And I have also to thank Miss E. E. C. Jones for much discussion of the Ms. under similar conditions. Some controversial exaggerations have in this way been avoided, and if any still remain they will, I hope, be duly pointed out by other opponents.
