Sobre este artículo
London: Macmillan and Co, 1887. PRESENTATION COPY OF THE (SECOND) FIRST PUBLISHED EDITION. 1 volume, inscribed on he half-title "Middie Synge/ from the Author/ Mar. /87", with the accompanying printed envelope (dated 1887) containing 8 of 9 counters, 3 of 4 red and 5 of 5 gray, and the printed card-diagram. Bound in the original gilt stamped red cloth, inner hinges starting, spine darkened and chipped, still GOOD. For whatever reason Dodgson had suppressed the first 1886 edition of this work of which approximately only 50 copies were produced. There are three chapters, "New Lamps for old", "Cross questions", and "Hit or miss"; the last, like the papers on Logic, contain tricky premises from which conclusions have to be drawn. The diagrams are suited, in conjunction with red counters (one or more objects) or gray counters (no objects) placed on them, to express various kinds of logical statements. Dodgson's work 'Symbolic Logic' has a development of this idea.
