The Uses and Abuses of Argument: Critical Thinking and Fallacious Reasoning by Stephen Carey

The Uses and Abuses of Argument: Critical Thinking and Fallacious Reasoning by Stephen Carey

Lively and jargon-free, this example-driven critical thinking text pays particular attention to fallacious reasoning as well as to the kinds of valid arguments that correspond to nearly every fallacy. The text provides detailed discussions of the types of correct argument and inference corresponding to each fallacy and offers a “Media Watch” section in each chapter.
