The Hurley approach to reducing logic is far superior to any other method I know of.

My (used) copy of Hurley's book on logic finally arrived today, only two weeks after I ordered it from Amazon. But hey, the price was right--only about four bucks, including shipping, if I recall correctly.

It looks like the book covers a lot of ground. To jump start my reading, can you tell me which chapter(s) describe "the Hurley approach to reducing logic" of which you speak so highly? Also, is there anything especially worthwhile on the companion CD, or is it there just so they could say "Includes CD!!!"?

Thanks,

-- Russ
