Beinish's Question

Question

Hello Rabbi,
I am in first-year shiur at a higher yeshiva, and as part of my studies in the faith curriculum I am learning Maimonides' introductions to the Mishnah (with Rabbi Shilat's commentary). In his commentary, Rabbi Shilat very often refers to a book called Words of Logic by Maimonides. It's a book I had literally never heard of until first-year shiur (and my study partner hadn't heard of it either, and he's in sixth-year shiur). I tried looking for modern commentaries on it or lectures on YouTube, but I simply found nothing. And because of that I'm wondering: why is there a whole book by Maimonides which, from what I've seen, also serves as an important foundation for The Guide for the Perplexed and for Maimonides' introductions to the Mishnah, etc., and yet nobody knows it / teaches it? You can really see Maimonides' thought reflected in it. And do you recommend starting to learn the book on my own?
Thank you very much, and have a good day.

Answer

It is a known book, and as far as I remember it is not especially difficult. Mainly medieval logic.
