Description

Aristotle maps how to build and take apart arguments—premises, syllogisms, and the arts of debate—so a listener can practise sharper critical thinking in real conversation. Usable listening for logic without the lecture fog, from everyday dispute to careful proof. Spoken as when Topics still asks what a sound premise can win before the quarrel begins.

Author

Aristotle was an influential philosopher and polymath who lived in Ancient Greece. He was a student of Plato and is widely regarded as one of the most important thinkers in history, pioneering the fields of aesthetics, ethics, metaphysics, politics, and science. His works were instrumental in the development of Western thought and have been a major source of inspiration throughout the ages.
