Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive guide to the theory and practice of academic debate. It emphasizes logic, analysis, argumentation, and persuasion. The author believes that academic debate is a valuable academic discipline, perhaps the most valuable in the current curriculum because it trains students in the tools of argumentation, how to construct logical arguments, and how to detect weaknesses in the arguments of others. The author expounds on the differences between academic and non-academic or political debate and stresses that students should be encouraged not to form strong attachments to their point of view so that they may develop the soundest possible case and learn to understand both sides of an argument. The author contends that all teachers hope that their students will put their argumentation skills to good use after graduation and that they are likely to if their training has been sound, since they will then be more aware of irrational appeals, more likely to expose them, and more logical in their own arguments.
