Introductory Logic for Christian & Home Schools: Student

Click here to view a sample of the new Introductory Logic student text!

Logic is the art of reasoning well—of learning to think God’s thoughts after Him. In this book, directed toward junior-high students, Douglas Wilson and James Nance lay the proper foundation of reasoning in the truth of God, and go on to train students in the crucial skills of defining terms, recognizing basic types of statements, arguing with syllogisms, arguing in ordinary language, and identifying informal fallacies.

This text, together with Intermediate Logic by James Nance, provides students with a rigorous course in logic that will help them excel in every other subject they will study, from math and science to rhetoric and the humanities. Extensively revised and updated, with additional review questions and exercises for each unit, this book is an essential part of every Christian school or home school curriculum. 39 lessons; consumable.

Author Bios:
James B. Nance has taught at Logos School since 1990, where he currently teaches logic, rhetoric, calculus, physics, and Christian doctrine. He is also the author of Intermediate Logic for Christian and Home Schools. James and his wife Giselle have four children.

Douglas Wilson holds an M.A. in philosophy and is pastor of Christ Church in Moscow, Idaho, board member of Logos School, and editor of Credenda/Agenda magazine. He is the author of several books on classical Christian education, including Recovering the Lost Tools of Learning, Repairing the Ruins: The Classical and Christian Challenge to Education (editor), The Paideia of God and Other Essays on Education, and The Case for Classical Christian Education. He and his wife Nancy have three children and nine grandchildren.

Changes in the New Edition
Expanded, Corrected, Completely Redesigned Fourth Edition
Our popular Logic curriculum has been changed in a number of critical areas:

First, in order to present to the student a more logical progression of topics, the section on defining terms has been moved from Intermediate Logic to Introductory Logic, where it is taught along with other branches of informal logic and categorical logic.

Second, review questions and review exercises have been added to each unit for every lesson in the text, effectively doubling the number of exercises for students to verify their knowledge and develop their understanding of the material. Additionally, some especially challenging problems have been included in the review exercises.

Third, the definitions of important terms, key points made, and caution signs regarding common errors are now set apart in the margins of the text. This should help students to distinguish the most important topics, as well as aid in their review of the material.

Fourth, every lesson has been reviewed in great detail with the goal of improving the clarity of the explanations and correcting several minor errors that were found in the original edition.

Fifth, the book is now in a handsome perfect-binding, with all exercise pages perforated for easy removal.

If you have any questions about the transition to the new edition, please feel free to contact us!
