I've added a new book to the Logics category:
The Logic Book 4th ed. by Bergmann, Moor, and Nelson
ISBN 0-07-240189-3
(This book rates superbly above the logics book below. It's utmost recommended and it is beautifully educative and easy to learn from. There is also a 5th ed. out.)

Cheers! :)

PS: I've also edited the list I've originally written above/earlier under this header.
