Inhaltsangabe

This textbook introduces students to logic and contemporary rhetoric, particularly as applied to problems encountered in everyday life as well as social and political issues. Using examples drawn from sources such as television, newspapers, advertisements, and political speeches, Kahane (U. of Maryland) and Cavender (College of Marin) encourage students to think critically about issues such as abortion, diets, drugs, and astrology. A sampling of topics includes deduction and induction, fallacious reasoning, the manipulation of language, evaluating and writing cogent essays, and sources of information. Annotation c.

Reseña del editor

This leading text introduces students to good reasoning using a wealth of current, relevant, and stimulating examples all put together in Howard Kahane's uniquely witty and invigorating writing style that makes this the book of choice for keeping students interested. Combined with examples from TV, newspapers, magazines, advertisements, and of course, our political institutions, the text not only brings the concepts alive for students, but puts the skills into a context that students will retain and use throughout their lives. A book you can count on students to read.
