Fundamentals of Critical Argumentation (Critical Reasoning and Argumentation)
Douglas Walton

Cambridge University Press, 2005

Brilliant Book.
After reading a few books with argument or debate in the title, I finally found one that I really like. In fact I liked it so much that I am buying his other books about the subjects he covers in these chapters. He seems to take the state of the Art in informal Logic ...

Argumentation and Debate (with InfoTrac ) (Wadsworth Series in Communication Studies)
Austin J. Freeley, David L. Steinberg

Wadsworth Publishing, 2004

Best Basic Debate Text Available
When I learned debate, it was the 1996 version of this book, but it has gotten better! This is a great book whether you are a beginning novice debater wanting to learn how to compete in academic debate or an experience debater looking to solidify your theory arguments.

The New Rhetoric: A Treatise on Argumentation
Chaim Perelman, Lucie Olbrechts-Tyteca

University of Notre Dame Press, 1969

Not just plain math!
This book is a masterpiece in the subject of argumentation. Since Descartes the rethorical argumentation got a bad conotation, as a disguise to fold the truth. But, as Perelman brightly teachs, not all structures of the reality can be describe just by the formal ...
  
  











  



  
Logical Self-Defense (Key Titles in Rhetoric, Argumentation, and Debates Series)

Over many years, this book continues to impress

Informal Logic: A Handbook for Critical Argumentation
Douglas N. Walton

Cambridge University Press, 1989

Don't You Agree That No Right Thinking Person Would Find Fault With This Book?
The title is an example of overly aggressive questioning and a fallacious attempt to end debate by labeling anyone who disagrees a dunce. In a courtroom the question would be disallowed on the legal grounds that it is argumentative. In the newsroom, the boardroom, ...

Thinking Syntactically: A Guide to Argumentation and Analysis (Blackwell Textbooks in Linguistics)
Liliane Haegeman

Wiley-Blackwell, 2005

DiaLaw: On Legal Justification and Dialogical Models of Argumentation (Law and Philosophy Library)
A.R. Lodder

Springer, 2001

In this work it is argued that legal justification can best be studied from a procedural, dialogical point of view: legal statements are justified if the audience is convinced in an argumentative dialog. The formalized and implemented model DiaLaw guards the procedure in which two players aim at justifying statements. DiaLaw shows the ...
  
  











  



  
Advocacy and Opposition: An Introduction to Argumentation (5th Edition)
Karyn Charles Rybacki, Donald Jay Rybacki

Allyn & Bacon, 2003

Purchaser of Advocacy and Opposition
I received this book less than a week after my purchase. Although, my class is using the 6th edition, there is not much difference in the two books. I've purchased items from amazon before, so I am satisfied with this purchase as well.
