Complete in one sweep, the treatise that ruled nineteenth century logic. John Stuart Mill builds from names and propositions to the celebrated methods of experimental inquiry, then on through fallacies to the logic of the moral sciences. Generations of scientists learned what proof means from these pages. Work through the whole system as Mill designed it.

Includes read-aloud narration with live word highlighting.
