The Game of Logic

The Game of Logic was written by Lewis Carroll, also the author of Alice in Wonderland. Lewis Carroll felt that everyone should learn to think logically, to help them deal with the bad arguments that were put to them by politicians and advertisers.

Emotions Get in the Way
Lewis Carroll said that when trying to think something through, it's too easy to get bogged down by the details of what the problem personally means to the player. It is easier to understand ideas if emotional connections are removed.

He particularly wanted to help teenagers and young people to think logically and in the end he devised a way of doing this in a way that made it seem more like a game.
