        History

        (from Wikipedia entry)

        Alfred Sidgwick (1850 in Skipton - December 22 1943 in Orchard Trewoofe ) was an English logician and philosopher.

        Sidgwick studied at Lincoln College in Oxford. He became known for his analysis of fallacies . His logic is a theory of argumentation. He opposes the formal logic and emphasized the practical benefits that the study of the logic must have. In addition to some own books he published mainly in the philosophical journal Mind. For Sidgwick, the logic is a science in which it comes to distinguishing good from bad arguments, and these arguments in both the communication between several people as well as in the analysis of thinking of an individual play a role.

        Sidwick's publications include:

        Fallacies. A View of Logic from the Practical Side. 1883; 2. Aufl.: London 1890
        Distinction and Criticism of Beliefs. Longmans, Green & Co., London 1892
        The Process of Argument: A Contribution to Logic. 1893
        The Use of Words in Reasoning. 1901
        The Application of Logic.Macmillan, London 1910
        Elementary Logic. 1914
