Reviews

[Maya · Rating 4 out of 5]

If you are looking for a book to read about logic and critical thinking that is simple and to the point then this is the book for you.

This book can be downloaded for free from the author's website just google his name. Dr. Brendan wrote this book for his students as a way to cut down on the cost of books at least for his class then decided to offer it to eveyone interested.

I cannot wait for the expanded version of this book which Dr. Brendan says is in the works.
