Endorsements (${ productEndorsements.length })
“Most books on logic content themselves with trying to fix our problems in logic. But in this book, Vern Poythress takes a God-centered approach to the subject, which addresses a more foundational problem we haveour problem about logic. What is it? Why is it authoritative? If logic is part of the creation, could God have made a world that had round squares in it? And if logic is untouchable and mysteriously somehow over God, then doesnt that make logic God? In this book, Poythress does a masterful job of showing how our ability to think rationally is grounded in the very nature of God Himself. I heartily recommend this book to every student of the subject.”
