Give Them an Argument: Logic for the Left
Description
‘Ben Burgis understands that in order to persuade people to join a political
movement, you have to master the techniques of rigorous argumentation. He
masterfully exposes the cheap sophistry of right-wing ‘philosophy’ and shows
why there’s still a place for logic and reason in political discourse. This is
a crucial handbook for those who want to ‘crush’ and ‘destroy’ the Ben
Shapiros of the world.’ Nathan Robinson, Editor, Current AffairsMany serious

formal logic and informal fallacies. Read more Read less
