• Excerpt from The Logic of Sir William Hamilton, Bart., Professor of Logic and Metaphysics in the University of Edinburgh: Reduced and Prepared for Use in Colleges and SchoolsBut the Lectures, as an exposition of Logical sci ence, were by no means free from defect. Sir Wil liam Hamilton himself has indicated some of the improvements he had discovered as desirable in the science, as a system, in his Discussions and the Frag mentary Notes published by his Editors. To supply this want, the present Editor has inserted in para graphs indicated by brackets, what he has deemed desir able in these improvements, and yet compatible with the integrity of form in which the system still appears. The more important of these additions are, The Enu meration of the Wholes with which Logic should be conversant. The Division of Judgments. The Division of Reasonings into Mediate and Immediate. and The Nature of Inductive Reasoning.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
