Logic for Philosophy is an introduction to logic for students of contemporary philosophy. It covers (i) basic approaches to logic, including proof theory and especially model theory, (ii) extensions of standard logic that are important in philosophy, and (iii) some elementary philosophy of logic. It is suitable both for advanced undergraduates and for beginning graduate students in philosophy.
For example, it discusses modal logic and counterfactuals, but does not prove the central metalogical results for predicate logic (completeness, undecidability, etc.) Its goal is to introduce students to the logic they need to know in order to read contemporary philosophical work. It emphasizes breadth rather than depth. It is very user-friendly for students without an extensive background in mathematics.
In short, this book gives you the understanding of logic that you need to do philosophy.
