Praise for this book

"This study addresses the very real scandal that logic cannot without absurdity provide its own foundation. The book should appeal to anyone concerned with philosophical meditations on the problems of logical necessity, truth, and history." -- David Lovekin, Hastings College

"Before Logic is a competent and widely informed book, one whose main thesis is provocative and interesting." -- Nicholas Rescher, author of Realistic Pragmatism and Predicting the Future
