The Art of Argument: An Introduction to the Informal Fallacies
Take a look at a sample chapter here!
The Art of Argument is a humorous, insightful book that will teach your children forty common informal fallacies. Amusing but spot-on explanations, droll samples, and other selections will train them to identify political and media manipulation.

Logic Taught From a Christian Perspective
The workbook format uses many updated illustrations and examples to ensure understanding. The Christian perspective ensures that none of the examples will be lewd. The Art of Argument builds and expands on what your children have learned in The Fallacy Detective and makes them accountable, via workbook pages, for the information.

Independent Study
Funny and convicting, this is a book that will yield long-ranging benefits. This is a super program for independent students ten and older. Workbook is 230 pages.


An optional teacher's guide is available separately and includes answer keys and reproducible quizzes corresponding to The Art of Argument student text.
 
Features

Students master 40 fallacies (such as begging the question, the straw man, ad hominen, et al) by studying many pertinent examples. The text features a variety of:

  • Dialogues
  • Worksheets
  • Real-World Applications
  • Phony Advertisements
  • Dialectic Discussion Questions
  • Tests
  • Fun extras such as a humorous skit for students to perform, and the famous short story, Love is a Fallacy by Max Shulman
