An Introduction to Logic for Students of Physics and Engineering - Paperback

by Nasa Technical Reports Server (Ntrs) (Created by), Joseph C. Kolecki (Author)

A physicist with an engineering background, the author presents a brief tutorial on logic. In his work at NASA and in his encounters with students, he has often found that a firm grounding in basic logic is lacking - perhaps because there are so many other demands on people that time simply cannot be taken to really examine the roots of human reasoning. This report provides an overview of this all-too-important subject with the dual hope that it will suffice insofar as it goes and that it will spur at least some to further study.
