Description Discover surprising new solutions to legendary paradoxes that were once thought to be impossible to solve. Master the fundamental underlying principles of logic and finally acquire an intuitive and second nature grasp of how to reason correctly. Free your mind from the daily fog of irrationality and misinformation by empowering yourself with the guiding light of logic. These are just some of the kinds of things this book is about.
