Intended for the first course in logic, this is an established text with proven strengths in its incorporation of the philosophy of language, analysis of arguments as they occur in ordinary language and of inductive arguments.
the book should serve as an introduction to the basics of reasoning and logic as well as argument and argument fallacies like for example:
-Ad hominem effect.
-Appeals to authority.
-the issue of relevance.
The book walks through argument construction, argument evaluation and the language of arguments.
I think the book is a must read for anyone who ever engaged in any kind of conversation with another human being.
