An Introduction to Non-Classical Logic is an introductory textbook written by philosopher and logician Graham Priest on non-classical logics.
Two editions
The first edition is from 2001 and is titled just An Introduction to Non-Classical Logic, while the second edition, from 2008, is titled An Introduction to Non-Classical Logic: From If to Is (being a greatly improved and expanded version of the first edition). Both are published by Cambridge University Press.
Topics
1st edition
It covers many different propositional logics, including that of classical logic.
2nd edition
The subtitle From If to Is was added because the 2nd edition also deals with predicate calculi. The book is divided into two parts: Part 1 covers the first edition content with improvements, and Part 2 is the totally new content of the book. The 2nd edition covers all topic from the first, and many more topics. The table of contents include: modal logic, intuitionist logic, fuzzy logics, and more.
Audience and reception
The prerequisites for understanding the book are, for the most part, undergraduate courses understanding on classical symbolic logic
According to J. Mackenzie, the book "deserves to become the standard textbook in its field."
