A Modern Introduction to Logic
This is not an introductory book -- despite the title -- but contains a deep and wide analysis of the problem of the 'new' logic (post-Russell and Whitehead). It is just a superb book -- If everyone in the English speaking world had read it, and studied it, by the age of 18, the West would not now be in decay.For the older logic, of course -- the predicate - the classic treatment is H.W.B. Joseph, An Introduction to Logic, which has now been reprinted: http://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Logic-H-W-Joseph/dp/1889439177 (it took me years to find a copy)
If you're looking for a handbook, to teach yourself symbolic logic, I'd recommend working through the following (in this order):
1.) Lemmon's Beginning Logic: http://www.amazon.com/Beginning-Logic-E-J-Lemmon/dp/0915144506/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1261281913&sr=8-1
2.) Cohen and Nagel, An Introduction to Logic, Book I: http://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Logic-Scientific-Method/dp/1931541914/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1261282025&sr=1-1
As always, the fall of nations is due as much to forgetfulness as to calamity.
