N2  - "The irreversible and dramatic explosion of technology has made human relationships and affairs even more complex than what one can imagine. Hence, the demands to think critically, responsively, and creatively cannot be denied in order to sustain the momentum of development in all spheres of our civil and religious life. In keeping with these life predicaments, this revised edition has modified some activities and added concepts which could be a progressive tool in acquiring relevant skills that are indispensable to clear, correct, and meaningful conversation. This workpiece is to continue contributing to the realization of this endeavor. In today's academe augmented by various technologies, applications and education algorithm, the need to think responsively and reason out with integrity is critically imperative considering the fast and massive development of technology and the unimaginable expansion of Artificial Intelligence (AI) which make it important to take another look at the relevance of Logic in college curriculum. With the foregoing observation, this edition is conceived and is intended to serve as a modest and responsive contribution to the need for a convenient workbook primarily for college freshmen and sophomores, yet an easy and simple presentation is still adopted. Moreover, this edition would further provide practical exercises in order to expose the students to actual situations and help them apply the principles they have learned. Hence, it is hope that while students are learning the basic skills and principles in sound reasoning, they keep upholding honesty and integrity in their academic endeavors despite the lure of fake news, information overload, and virtual realities." —Preface
