""The Logic of Style: Being an Introduction to Critical Science"" is a book written by William Renton and first published in 1874. The book is an introduction to critical science and explores the principles of style, how it is constructed, and how it can be analyzed.

The second part examines the different forms of style, such as narrative, descriptive, and argumentative. The third part focuses on the analysis of style, including the use of figures of speech and the importance of rhythm and sound.
