Recenzii

'Undergraduates will find the book useful as a resource. It covers a lot of ground mentioning most of the issues and positions that need to be addressed in a course on conditionals over the years. This is a good place to learn about conditionals or to have one's ideas about them challenged.' - Notre Dame Journal of Formal Logic

'If P Then Q is recommended reading for all who want to work in this suprisingly rich field.' - Australasian Journal of Philosophy
