- Synopsis
- What makes an argument a good argument? This is probably not a question you have ever thought or cared much about. It is important, though, because people use arguments to try to convince us to do their bidding or to accept their claims as true. We also need to make arguments to convince others to do our bidding or to accept what we are saying is true. For these reasons, we want to be able to identify the arguments of others that are not convincing, and we want to make our arguments as convincing as possible. This book is a guide for identifying convincing arguments and for determining whether an argument is a good one, and one you should accept. Determining which arguments to accept requires us to evaluate arguments.
