JM.
Good points !
I take this one to be a reference to Godel:
"...Additionally, philosophical thinking backed up by "logic" is always suspect simply because in the beginning of "logical" thinking we always find it is based (necessarily so) upon assumptions....."
I would merely add that a second problem with "logic" is that according to Piaget it is a subsystem of "semantics" appearing only in adulthood.

I would also recommend
The Oxford Companion to Philosophy as an excellent reference work.
