“Even those who stand outside the sacred circle for which he writes and who can not share the glowing devoutness of his symbolism must be moved by the enthusiastic tenderness with which this Jesuit priest idealizes the land of his ministry.” H. L. Stewart

An introductory text book prepared by an assistant professor of philosophy in the University of Minnesota. “By ‘modern’ logic is understood that body of logical theories and methods which is usually associated with the names of Lotze, Sigwart, Bradley, Bosanquet, Wundt, Erdmann and Dewey.... The traditional or Aristotelian logic, which has played so great a part in the past history of thought, is entirely omitted from consideration, as are also symbolic logic and the various attempts at inventing a logical calculus. For all such omissions, as well as for what is included, the sole justification is the nature of an introductory treatise.” (Preface) The book is in three parts: Judgment; Inference; and Scientific method. Each chapter is followed by references and exercises and there is an index to authorities referred to in the text as well as a general index.
“In this purpose to develop comprehensively the constructive theory of ‘modern logic,’ the author has admirably succeeded. The presentation marches. Compactness, explicitness, the constant use of illustration, and clarity in development are its outstanding features.” C. I. Lewis
