In addition to his well-known children's literature, Carroll was an academic mathematician who worked in mathematical logic.
He published The Game of Logic in 1886. The book describes, in an informal and playful style, the use of a board game to represent logical propositions and inferences.
Later, Carroll incorporated the game into a longer and more formal introductory logic textbook titled Symbolic Logic, published in 1897.
These books are sometimes reprinted in a single volume.
