Description
The new edition of a text that attempts to do for informal logic what Strunk and White's Elements of Style did for English composition (i.e. present the essentials in as brief a format as possible). Eleven chapters cover topics such as valid argument forms, causal analysis, errors in reasoning, definition, and reasonable beliefs. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.
