Features: This book includes general logical knowledge and its applications, the general characteristics of propositions, categorical propositions, compound propositions, normative propositions, an overview of reasoning, deductive reasoning, inductive reasoning, analogical reasoning, hypotheses and investigative hypotheses, and argumentation. This book is written to meet the teaching needs of the "Legal Logic" course for law majors in ordinary universities as required by the Ministry of Education. It is a revised version of "Practical Judicial Logic" (published in 1999, awarded as an excellent teaching material by the Ministry of Justice in 2000). It basically follows the original book's writing style, theoretical perspectives, and explanation methods, but with necessary adjustments and significant changes in content. The book differs from many current logic textbooks in both its systematic arrangement and its content, as well as in the explanation of certain logical theoretical issues.
