Logic, Form and Grammar is a valuable addition to the Routledge International Library of Philosophy on a topic of fundamental importance, namely the notion of logical form... (This is a) notion to which, the author believes, both logicians and philosophers have helped themselves, rather uncritically. According to Long, this fact alone is responsible for diverse confusions ranging from Locke's positing of a substratum through Bradley's account of relations to the early Wittgenstein's treatment of facts as complexes. The goal of the work is not merely to dispel these (and various other) confusions, but to arrive at an account of logical form which clarifies the formal validity of reasoning with hypotheticals quite generally. To that end Part I focuses on logical form as it applies to arguments (which constitutes more than 75% of the text) and Parts II and III on the notion as it applies to propositions. Paul Tomassi, 'Mind'.
