Abstract
This is a book on first-order modal logic. Adding quantifier machinery to classical propositional logic yields first-order classical logic, fully formed and ready to go. For modal logic, however, adding quantifiers is far from the end of the story, as we will soon see. But certainly adding quantifiers is the place to start. As it happens, even this step presents complications that do not arise classically. We say what some of these are after we get language syntax matters out of the way.
