The chapters build on one  \nanother. The organization is sound and the author does a  \nsuperior job of presenting the structure of arguments. \"  \nDavid M. Adams, California State Polytechnic University  \n\"These examples work quite well. Their diversity, literacy,  \nethnic sensitivity, and relevancy should attract readers.\"  \nStanley Baronett. Jr., University of Nevada Las Vegas  \nFar too many authors of contemporary texts in informal logic – keeping an eye on the sorts of arguments found in books on formal logic – forget, or underplay, how much of our daily reasoning is concerned not with arguments leading to truth-valued conclusions but with making choices, assessing reasons, seeking advice, etc. Dowden gets the balance and the emphasis right.  \nNorman Swartz, Simon Fraser University  \nAcknowledgments  \nFor the 1993 edition: The following friends and colleagues deserve thanks for their help and encouragement with this project: Clifford Anderson, Hellan Roth Dowden, Louise Dowden, Robert Foreman, Richard Gould, Kenneth King, Marjorie Lee, Elizabeth Perry, Heidi Wackerli, Perry Weddle, Tiffany Whetstone, and the following reviewers: David Adams, California State Polytechnic University; Stanley Baronett, Jr., University of Nevada-Las Vegas; Shirley J.

Nelson, Dutchess Community College; James E. Parejko, Chicago State University; Robert Sessions, Kirkwood Community College; and Stephanie Tucker, California State University Sacramento. Thinking and writing about logical reasoning has been enjoyable for me, but special thanks go to my children, Joshua, 8, and Justine, 3, for comic relief during the months of writing. This book is dedicated to them.  \nFor the 2011 edition: This book is dedicated to my wife Hellan whose good advice has improved the book in many ways.  \nTable of Contents  \nPreface..........................................................................................................................................................ii  \nCopyright ................................................................................................................................................ii  \nPraise............................................................","cbCair8mpiStCFyZ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCair8mpiStCFyZ","pdf",10444874,564,"English","# Preface\n## Copyright\n## Praise\n## Acknowledgments\n## Table of Contents\n# Chapter 1 How to Reason Logically\n## Facing a Decision as a Critical Thinker\n## Advice for Logical Reasoners\n## Examples of Good Reasoning\n## Review of Major Points\n## Glossary\n## Exercises\n# Chapter 2 Claims, Issues, and Arguments\n## What is a Claim?\n## What is an Argument?\n## What is the Issue?","[{\"question\":\"What license governs the 2011 edition of Logical Reasoning?\",\"answer\":\"The book is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Unported License with conditions requiring attribution, prohibiting commercial use, and disallowing derivative works.\"},{\"question\":\"How did the publication rights change from the 1993 Wadsworth edition?\",\"answer\":\"When Wadsworth decided no longer to print the book, they returned their publishing rights to the original author, Bradley Dowden.\"},{\"question\":\"What topics are introduced in Chapter 1 and Chapter 2?\",\"answer\":\"Chapter 1 focuses on reasoning logically, including decision-making, advice for logical reasoners, examples of good reasoning, and review.
