Write more early about impossibility #19

Closed jonathanichikawa closed 1 year ago

jonathanichikawa commented 4 years ago

I think I should say more about impossibility in Chapter 1, in connection to the definition of validity. I want just a bit more structure/background, in order to help explain how validity works. In particular, the issue about impossible premises.

I always have some students who really struggle with the explanation I offer in class, and I want to think up a few more ways to explain it, to be able to point them to in the text.

New §1.6 does this.
