Logic
Anthony Andres, Ph.D.
International Catholic University Classics Collection, recorded in 2002
This course endeavors to explain the fundamental character of Aristotelian logic so that we can understand references to it in philosophical and theological discussions; so that we are able to perceive the use of logical tools in Aristotle and St. Thomas in order to read them with more understanding; and finally so that we can begin to use the tools of logic to think, write, and teach more clearly.
