On Boole / Dale Jacquette. - Belmont, CA : Wadsworth/Thomson Learning, c2002. - 97 p. 22 cm.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 92-97).
Revolutionizes logic by applying methods from the then-emerging field of symbolic algebra to logic. Where traditional (Aristotelian) logic relied on cataloging the valid syllogisms of various simple form, Boole's method provided general algorithms in an algebraic language which applied to an infinite variety of arguments of arbitrary complexity.
