For Aristotle himself, this meant the discovery of a general theory of valid deductive argument, a project that he had described as either impossible or impracticable, probably not very long before he actually came up with syllogistic reasoning. A syllogism is the inferring of one proposition from two others of a particular form, and it is the subject of the\u003cem\u003e Prior Analytics\u003c\/em\u003e. The first book, to which this volume is devoted, offers a fairly coherent presentation of Aristotle's logic as a general theory of deductive argument.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"OUP Oxford","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47609646776471,"sku":"9780199250417","price":4879.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780199250417.webp?v=1775059444","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/aristotles-prior-analytics-book-i-9780199250417","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
