ABOUT THE AUTHOR Isaac Watts 1674 - 1748 was an English Congregational minister hymn writer theologian and logician. He was a prolific and popular hymn writer and is credited with some 750 hymns. His works include When I Survey the Wondrous Cross Joy to the World and O God Our Help in Ages Past. He is recognized as the Godfather of English Hymnody; many of his hymns remain in use today and have been translated into numerous languages. Isaac Watts is credited by many with introducing hymns to the English churches when his Hymns and Spiritual Songs was first published in 1707. They are extensively used today due to his poetic gifts but also because he interpreted the Old Testament using knowledge of the New. This set an example for later hymn writers. Watts also wrote a textbook on logic which was particularly popular and highly regarded. Its full title was Logick or The Right Use of Reason in the Enquiry After Truth With a Variety of Rules to Guard Against Error in the Affairs of Religion and Human Life as well as in the Sciences. This was first published in 1724 and it was printed in twenty editions. Michael Farrady cites it as a source of inspiration. CONDITION REPORT The book is in Fair condition.
