A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

What is ‘Humpty-Dumptying’? Do ‘arguments from analogy’ ever stand up? How do I know when someone is using ‘Weasel words?’ What is a ‘Politician’s answer?’ What’s the difference between a ‘Red Herring’ and a ‘Straw Man?’

This superb book, now in its third edition, will help anyone who wants to argue well and think critically. Using witty and topical examples, this fully-updated new edition has many new entries including:

• Charity, principle of
• Lawyer’s Answer
• Least Worst Option
• Stonewalling
• Sunk-Cost Fallacy
• Tautology
• Truism
• Weasel Words
• ‘You Would Say That Wouldn’t You’

Thinking From A to Z may not help you win every argument, but it will definitely give you the power to tell a good one from a bad one.
