Riassunto

Too often we’re guided by what we last heard, by our friends’ approval, by impulse—our desires, our fears.  Without reflection.  Without even stopping to think.   **  In this book you’ll learn how to reason and find your way better in life.  You’ll learn to see the consequences of what you and others say and do. You’ll learn to see the assumptions that you and others make.  You’ll learn how to judge what you should believe.  These are the skills we all need to make good decisions.  **  Claims.  Arguments.  Fallacies.  Analogies.  Generalizing.  Cause and Effect.  Explanations.  These are clearly set out with hundreds of examples from daily life showing how to use them.  Illustrations using a cast of cartoon characters make the concepts memorable.  And many exercises will help you to check your understanding.  **  Truly a book for all—from high school to graduate school, from auto repair to managing a company.  How to Reason will help you find a way in life that is clearer and not buffetted by the winds of nonsense and fear.
