About this title

Synopsis

This concise, accessible text teaches students how to construct logical, cohesive arguments and how to evaluate the arguments of others.

Integrating writing skills with critical thinking skills, this practical book teaches students to draw logical inferences, identify premises and conclusions and use language precisely. Students also learn how to identify fallacies and to distinguish between inductive and deductive reasoning. Ideal for any composition class that emphasizes argument, this text includes coverage of writing style, research, documentation, literature, rhetoric, and logic.
