Synopsis
Intended for the first course in logic, The Power of Logic (POL) is written with the conviction that logic is the most important course that college students take. POL preserves the balance between informal and formal logic. Layman's direct and accessible writing style, along with his plentiful examples, imaginative exercises, and POL's accompanying Logic Tutor make this the best text for logic classes today.

- 4***7 (238)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseSigned 1st edition hardcover of "The Fall of Hyperion," by Dan Simmons arrived not quite as pictured & described due to packaging insufficient to weather the challenges of the USPS. Wrapped in layers of foam wrap, sandwiched between 2 small pieces of cardboard & placed in a bubble mailer was not enough to prevent a hard bump to the book. At $300+ I'd expect a box. I did request a box in purchase comments. Beautiful book marred by USPS & no box. Got a good deal on it, though. Return was offered.
