"The Art of Logical Thinking; Or, The Laws of Reasoning" by William Walker Atkinson is an educational book from the early 1900s that teaches the rules of correct thinking. It looks at different ways of thinking, like inductive and deductive reasoning, and how we create ideas and make decisions. Atkinson wants to help people get better at using logic, saying that good reasoning is key to being successful. The beginning of the book talks about what reasoning is, saying it's using our minds to form opinions and arguments. He explains that while everyone reasons, they often do it wrong, which causes confusion and believing things that aren't true. He points out that bad reasoning can be seen in popular beliefs about religion and government. Atkinson prepares the reader for a deeper understanding of reasoning methods, arguing that we need to improve our minds and learn logical ideas to fight bad thinking and ineffective reasoning.
