The book begins with an extensive survey of the history of logic diagrams including looking at possible diagrams from Aristotle the development of both linear and closed figure diagrams by Leibniz Lambert Euler Venn's new system Peirce's Existential Graphs and Frege's two-dimensional notation as a kind of logic diagram system. During most of the 20th century there was little regard for efforts to construct logic diagrams. However since the 1980s there has been an increasing interest in such diagrams. Ever larger numbers of philosophers logicians mathematicians computational scientists and cognitive scientists have turned their attention to building analyzing using or exploring in other ways systems of logic diagrams. The system offered here makes use of line segments and points and it enjoys a number of important advantages: it is simple natural and both expressively and inferentially powerful. It can be used to analyze syllogisms (including those involving relational terms) and arguments involving unanalyzed statements. Understanding such a system can shed valuable light on how ordinary people naturally reason.
