Logic is defined as the philosophical science of correct reasoning. It is the universal rational instrument used to push philosophical frontiers by equipping the mind to make correct inferences about abstract issues. Logic covers both concepts and the relationships between them. It can be divided formally based on whether it discusses conceptual patterns or material needed for demonstration. It can also be divided based on whether the focus is on thought itself or argumentation, and whether reasoning is deductive from universal to particular or inductive from particular to universal.

- inferential thinking - the science of demonstration (to engender certainty) - the organon, the universal rational instrument for the acquisition of philosophical knowledge. - Main instrument to push philosophical frontiers, because it equips the mind with knowledgeability for making correct inferences people make regarding abstract issues.
Material Object: concepts and its structures
(propositions, syllogisms as mental products) Formal Object: inferential functions of concepts and propositions relations/reasons (they exist in the mind)
Subject Matter: covers both the words and the
relationships between them.
TYPES/DIVISIONS:
A. Formal and Material
«Formal – discusses the conceptual patterns or structures needed for correct and valid inference «Material – dwells with the material/s needed to perform demonstration; pertain to terms and premises
B. Formal and Dialectics
«Formal – focuses on though, treatise in matters pertaining to thought (Ideas and Propositions) «Dialectics – treatise on argumentation and disputation (Inference and Syllogism) C. Deductive and Inductive «Deductive – inferential/thinking process that begins with the universal down to the particular «Inductive – thinking that begins with the particular to the universal.
