Sinopsis:
Excerpt from Popular Fallacies
Some time ago the author vainly tried to obtain a book on Popular Fallacies, which would not merely state the fallacies, but would also, as far as possible, prove them to be fallacies by the use of a little elementary science, such as most of the younger generation now have great facilities for acquiring.
No such book appears to exist, though there are several which, to a limited extent, deal with the subject amongst a large amount of other matter not coming under the head Popular Fallacies, but these books being about fifty years old, the author ventures to place the present volume before the public, hoping that they may be amused and instructed by it, even as he has been in the preparation of it during the last thirteen years.
