"Watts gave a great deal of thought to the principles and methods of education; his most important works on the subject for students and teachers are Logick... and its sequel, The Improvement of the Mind... These works provide helpful advice, from an evangelical perspective, on reading, writing, and interpretation, and are designed to combat dogmatism and foster the rational testing of ideas. The long-lasting success of Logick as a textbook is attested by the increasing number of editions in the later eighteenth century and the first decade of the nineteenth" (ODNB).
