Michael Taylor said Clever, Accessible, Memorable. A clever way to make dense and theoretical arguments about logic utterly accessible.

Full of Wonderful! christopher neitzert I gave this as a gift to some friends for the holidays but managed to give it a thorough read before wrapping it up, and I must say this is a must for every coffee table. This goes doubly so for houses that have children. Not only does it teach rhetorical skills and provide adroit methods of defusing fallacy, but it also teaches critical thinking skills, all with beautiful illustration. A must have for any thinking person!. Not for kids Andrew Felsher This book is awful. My sister read it to my niece. Said niece has yet to make a single logical statement, even though she never committed any fallacies before being exposed to this book.Obviously, this must be because the book is defective. There are no other explanations.Therefore, we can conclude that the author intends to ruin children's minds, setting us down a slippery slope towards a world of mindless zombies.In any case, my dad - a tenured professor of Something Unrelated at Prestigious University - says that we can safely ignore this book, as Ali Almossawi is clearly a silly man.

Encourage your family members to flip through it. Twitter will be a more civil place.” —Kevin Tang, BuzzFeed “A great primer for anyone looking to understand logical fallacies Pass it along to the arguers—good and bad—in your life.” —Lauren Davis, io9 “Now more than ever, you need this illustrated guide to bad arguments, faulty logic, and silly rhetoric.” —Dan Sol
