The book covers a wide range of topics, including the nature of logic, the structure of arguments, and the principles of deduction and induction. Whately also explores the various types of fallacies and errors in reasoning, as well as the rules of syllogism and the methods of scientific inquiry. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both students and general readers interested in improving their reasoning skills. With its timeless insights and practical advice, Elements of Logic remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the art of logical thinking.1875.

De Morgan wrote in 1860 that Whately had restored the study of logic in England. Whateley's achievement was not so much in logic as in moral metalogic; he explained what logicians should have been doing.... Logic, said Whateley, is entirely conversant about language, and it is only as reasoning is expressed in language that logic can study it. The Contents are divided into the following four books: Analytical Outline of the Science; Sythnthetical Compendium; Of Fallacies; and Dissertation on the Province of Reasoning.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
