| Sumario: | "Fallacies and Argument Appraisal presents an introduction to the nature, identification, and causes of fallacious reasoning, along with key questions for evaluation. Drawing from the latest work on fallacies as well as some of the standard ideas that have remained relevant since Aristotle, Christopher W.

Critical questions are developed for each fallacy to help the student identify them and provide considered evaluations"--Jacket. |
