This text presents an analysis of Hegel's most challenging work, "Science of Logic". Although earlier commentators on the "Logic" have considered standard analytical philosophy - and with it modern logic - in opposition to Hegel, Clark Butler views it as a legitimate approach in terms of which Hegel needs to be understood. This interpretation allows him to address the rigour of Hegel's thought on several levels as at once an exercise in purely conceptual redefinition and a full-bodied work in metaphysical ontology and even theology. The result is an account of the "Logic" intelligible to both analytical philosophers and non-specialists.
