Ah, interesting. I think it’s good too. I’d thought it might take quite a bit of embellishment for logic teaching, but perhaps not.

Yes, logic can be quite an ask. :)

Yes, I thought so. It’s very much a primer, so there’s a lot it doesn’t really explain (one couldn’t easily use it as a textbook), but brisk and nicely written. Very good for upper level UG or PG without maths background, I guess.
