SynopsisGovier's THE PRACTICAL STUDY OF ARGUMENT provides students with a practical, unpatronizing, and academically serious introduction to sound argumentation. Presenting enough theory to explain why certain kinds of arguments are good or bad and enough illustrations and examples to show how such theory is brought to life in everyday practice, the text provides the student with a comprehensive introduction to critical thinking and some of the basics of formal logic.
