Excerpt from Reformed Logic: A System Based on Berkeley's Philosophy, With an Entirely New Method of Dialectic The object of the following treatise is to give an intelligible account of the principal facts of Mind, with a method for the right, expression and criticism of Reasoning. It is based on principles not before applied to such a purpose. The current systems of Metaphysic are obscure and difficult simply because they start from false premises, not because the nature and Operations of Mind cannot, if properly under stood, be made as comprehensible to beginners as other branches of knowledge. The rules of Dialectic are quite within the capacity of any intelligent schoolboy, and should be an essential part of early education, like Arithmetic.
