To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The part of the third rule which refers to an amlxi- guoua middle term hardly requires explanation. It has been stated (Lesson IV.) that an ambiguous terin is one which has two different meanings, implying different con- notations, and it is really equivalent to two different terms which happen to have the same form of spelling, so that they are readily mistaken for each other. Thus if we were to argue that because *' all metals are elements and Digitized by VjOOQLC XV.] THE RULES OF THE SYLLOG...ISM. 131 brass is metal, therefore it is an element," we should be committing a fallacy by using the middle term metal in two different senses, in one of which it means the pure simple substances known to chemists as metals, and in the other a mixture of metals commonly called metal in the arts, but known to chemists by the name alloy. In many examples which may be found in logical books the ambiguity of the middle term is exceedingly obvious, but the reader should always be prepared to meet with cases where exceedingly subtle and difficult cases of ambiguity occur.
