The Art of Logical Thinking: The Laws of Reasoning

ByWilliam Walker Atkinson

Reasoning is defined as: "The act, process or art of exercising the faculty of reason; the act or faculty of employing reason in argument; argumentation, ratiocination; reasoning power; disputation, discussion, argumentation." By the employment of the reasoning faculties of the mind we compare objects presented to the mind as percepts or concepts, taking up the "raw materials" of thought and weaving them into more complex and elaborate mental fabrics which we call abstract and general ideas of truth. This book aims to point out the methods and principles of correctly using the reasoning faculties of the mind, in a plain, simple manner, devoid of useless technicalities and academic discussion. William Walker Atkinson adheres to the principles established by the best of the authorities of the old school of psychology, blending the same with those advanced by the best authorities of the New Psychology.
