Lookig for a good book on Boolean Algebra

Hey,

I was looking online for a good book on Boolean Algebra and I cant really find any books that have reviews or books that people recommend. A lot of books on Boolean Algebra are focused toward circuit design which I don't really need to learn at the moment. I am looking for something that would be fairly fundamental that I can use to learn and create a solid understanding of Boolean Algebra. If anyone could recommend something it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Circuit logic gates are the same things you'd find in programming and other related subjects.

I suggest Boole's original paper; most of my computer-oriented friends go crazy for the copy I have.
Imagine a world without hypotheticals....
You can have my book when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers.

Would you trade anything for it?

Actually the name is spelled the way I wish it to be spelled. Most forums that I sign up for, the name android is already taken so I just use andriod. Your brain will still read it as android anyways : )

before we get too deep into this, look here - I think there is a better version around - give me a moment......
This might be a better place to start - or maybe here
