This is a logic text book written for the common person, it is both practical and philosophical.
Most sections have a quiz at the end with answers at the back. Unusually however, I found that it only gave the answers to the even numbered questions, was this a mistake or intentional? Hard to see it as a mistake seeing as how I got the Third edition.
Another minor problem I had was some of the philosophical aspects were hard to follow compared to the rest of the book and I think most people new to the topic might struggle, but there is plenty aside from that that is easy to follow and comprehend.
The Logical fallacies section has about 49 fallacies covered, very extensive, well explained and helpful section.
Everyone should learn logic and this would be a great place to start, the drawbacks I mentioned are very minor, a highly enjoyable read (not what I expected from a logic text book) and I learned a whole lot more than I expected.
Thumbs up!
