The Amazing Dr. Ransom's Bestiary of Adorable Fallacies

The Amazing Dr. Ransom's Bestiary of Adorable Fallacies

Forrest Dickison, Douglas Wilson, Nathan D. Wilson

About this book

"This book makes discovering informal fallacies (fallacies of content, rather than form) fairly simple...book is modeled after medieval bestiaries. Each fallacy is drawn as a caricature of a mythical beast.The beast is described, as well as its appeal. Then, the authors use anecdotes to show how each beast behaves "in the wild." Each "adorable fallacy" is discussed in a matter of just a few pages....Each fallacy is followed up with a few short discussion questions, and an opportunity to identify these beasts in the field"--Web review.
