Pensar de la A a la Z : una ayuda para argumentar bien y pensar de forma crítica (GEDISA GRÁFICA, Band 1002)

Nigel Warburton employs a subtle strategy of seduction to open the doors to the realm of classical and modern logic that seemed so dry to more than one of us in our student years that we gave up. Instead of presenting us with abstract algorithms, the author loads the rules of thought with stimulating doses of critical pepper. He shows us how logical fallacies are discovered in the stupidities and hypocrisies that circulate in the real world, such as (supposed) defenses of classist, racist, paternalistic prejudices and worse.... In this way, Warburton not only provides us with weapons for dismantling false arguments in university disciplines or in any conversation, but also for reading the press, listening to political speeches and fundamentalist sermons wherever they come from. Few instructions for right thinking will amuse and refresh the mind with as much pleasure as these. Don't forget to carry this little treasure in your pocket at all times, as a throwing weapon when your sanity is stunned by fraudulent conclusions.
