"An Introduction to Logic and Scientific Method" by Morris Raphael Cohen and Ernest Nagel, published by Harcourt, Brace and Co., 1934.

Hard boards, original cloth with gilt lettering on spine [some wear, small damage on top of spie: see photos]; 5.3/4" x 8.3/4"; former owner's name [Donald S. Bloch] inside front cover, xii + 467 pages including Index, several pencil underlines, very good condition.

"Written for independent study and suitable for an introductory course in logic, this classic text combines a sound presentation of logic with effective pedagogy and illustrates the role of logic in many areas of humanistic and scientific thought. Cohen and Nagel's elegant integration of the history of philosophy, natural science, and mathematics helps earn this work its distinguished reputation.

This is the only introductory logic book that discusses the 1931 Godel axiom system. It is also the only introductory logic book that discusses the distinction between argument forms and argument schemes (patterns). There are many other important topics treated here and nowhere else in introductory texts." [a review]
