Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book challenges traditional logic by proposing a system of reasoning more applicable to everyday life. The author reveals that every objection or argument admits an answer, and the effect of a relevant answer is to raise a new question. This back-and-forth process creates a 'progress of disputes', and the author explores its complexities, showing that an important characteristic of disputes is an apparent lack of conclusive ending. The book identifies the points over-looked by either party in a dispute, so that these can be accounted for and weighed up, leading to a clearer understanding of the evolving situation between opposing parties. The author argues that even when this clarity is achieved, more effect is produced upon the opposite views than either party is initially able to admit or see, as both parties may be led to take into account things that they would otherwise have failed to notice, and the old phrases and hostile banners may be carefully preserved but they pick up new or modified meanings. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in improving their reasoning skills and understanding the nature of disputes and arguments. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
