Principles of the Algebra of Logic

Excerpt from Principles of the Algebra of Logic: With Examples These 'Principles' were originally contributed to the Royal Society of Edinburgh in a Memoir received by the Secretary 9th October 1878, and in a supplementary paper received 5th November. I had the honour of reading an Abstract before the Society at the meetings of 16th December and 20th January. In the interval between the 5th November and the present time I have improved several of the demonstrations, introduced illustrative matter, and prepared the collection of examples. The work, in its present state, forms an elementary treatise on the science of Formal Reasoning. I consider it proper to state that the theory of the operation of the mind in reasoning about Quality, which is advanced in this work, occurred to me five years ago; and that I have directed towards its development the whole of my subsequent study of the Mathematical, Physical, and Natural Sciences, which are embraced in the curriculum for the degree of Doctor of Science (Mathematics) at the University of Edinburgh.
