Synopsis :

Offering an innovative approach to critical thinking, Good Reasoning Matters! identifies the essential structure of good arguments in a variety of contexts and also provides guidelines to help students construct their own effective arguments. In addition to examining the most common features
of faulty reasoning--slanting, bias, propaganda, vagueness, ambiguity, and a common failure to consider opposing points of view--the book introduces a variety of argument schemes and rhetorical techniques. This edition adds material on visual arguments and more exercises.

Présentation de l'éditeur: Good Reasoning Matters uses an innovative approach to critical thinking by teaching students how to argue effectively rather than just point out the short comings of ineffective arguments.
