Seller's Description:
Very Good. Size: 8x5x1; [From the library of noted scholar Richard A. Macksey. ] Hardcover and dust jacket. Tears to jacket with loss. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Pages unmarked. xii, 467 pages, 22 cm. "In a basic and comprehensive survey that illustrates the role of logic in every department of thought, the authors have come successfully near to the ideal that was constantly before them. They sought a text that would find a place for the realistic formalism of Aristotle, the scientific penetration of Peirce, the pedagogical soundness of Dewey, and the mathematical rigor of Russell. They view the history of logic, therefore, as that of a series of contributions of diverse value by various schools and, through this eclectic point of view, they are able to give the reader a broad and clear, rather than narrow, knowledge of the subject." "Richard A. Macksey was a celebrated Johns Hopkins University professor whose affiliation with the university spanned six and a half decades. A legendary figure not only in his own fields of critical theory, comparative literature, and film studies but across all the humanities, Macksey possessed enormous intellectual capacity and a deeply insightful human nature. He was a man who read and wrote in six languages, was instrumental in launching a new era in structuralist thought in America, maintained a personal library containing a staggering collection of books and manuscripts, inspired generations of students to follow him to the thorniest heights of the human intellect, and penned or edited dozens of volumes of scholarly works, fiction, poetry, and translation."-Johns Hopkins University.
