David Zarefsky uses a range of contemporary examples to show how arguments work and how they can be put together, beginning with simple individual arguments, and proceeding to the construction and analysis of complex cases incorporating different structures. Special attention is given to evaluating evidence and reasoning, the building blocks of argumentation. Zarefsky provides clear guidelines and tests for different kinds of arguments, as well as exercises that show student readers how to apply theories to arguments in everyday and public life. His comprehensive and integrated approach toward argumentation theory and practice will help readers to become more adept at critically examining everyday arguments as well as constructing arguments that will convince others"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a The argumentative perspective -- What arguments look like -- The emergence of controversy -- Evidence in argumentation -- Argument schemes -- Fallacies -- Case construction -- Attack and defense -- Language, style, and presentation -- Where and why we argue. 650 0 $a Debates and debating. 650 0 $a Forensics (Public speaking) 650 0 $a Reasoning. 650 0 $a Rhetoric. 941 $a 3 952 $l OPAX566 $d 20220128010300.0 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20200829015121.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200204024359.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D35B96E8166311EA9B100A4E97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
