Description

In this unique fusion of logical thought and inimitable whimsy, Over 350 ingenious problems involve classical logic: logic is expressed in terms of symbols; syllogisms and the sorites are diagrammed; logic becomes a game played with 2 diagrams and a set of counters. Two books bound as one.

Seems fairly simplistic, from my perspective as someone who's taken plenty of higher maths courses. Could be good for a preteen or junior high schooler, though.
