Learn Logic with Fred in Life of Fred: Logic! This book teaches students about sentences in logic, connectives, inductive reasoning, logic fallacies, syllogisms, proofs in predicate logic (including direct and indirect proofs), set theory as a predicate logic structure, axiom systems (consistent, complete, meaningful, independent, and recursive), and more! Written in the same fun, playful, and conversational tone as other Fred books, this text is filled with puzzles rather than problems and continues the storyline of 6-year-old mathematical genius Fred. The first six chapters can be used for a high school logic course, while the entire book can be used for a college-level course. There are no mathematical prerequisites. Solutions are included in the back of the 176-page hardcover book, making it a non-consumable textbook with 16 chapters and 99 puzzles.
