Summary
Predrag Stojadinović: 50 logical mistakes you should know about
The ability to think logically and reason is an innate quality of every human being, just like walking upright or using language to communicate. Our daily life and decision-making is based on logic much more than it seems at first glance. However, just as we are able to think logically, we often - knowingly or unknowingly - make logical mistakes. Civilized and reasoned dialogue, transmission of important messages and clear expression of thoughts and attitudes is impossible without awareness of logical errors and without recognition of such errors, in oneself and in others. In a world full of marketing, political, pseudoscientific and other campaigns based on skillful manipulation of facts and deliberate use of logical fallacies to mislead or mislead the widest audience, recognizing logical fallacies is an important defense mechanism of modern man.
The book 50 Logical Errors You Should Know is written as a valuable manual that will sharpen your sense of logic and enable you to more easily detect intellectual and other frauds, but also to become a more successful and persuasive interlocutor who presents his views honestly and with arguments.
