Argument, Inference and Dialectic Summary

Argument, Inference and Dialectic: Collected Papers on Informal Logic with an Introduction by Hans V. Hansen by Hans V. Hansen

This volume contains 12 papers addressed to researchers and advanced students in informal logic and related fields, such as argumentation, formal logic, and communications. Among the issues discussed are attempts to rethink the nature of argument and of inference, the role of dialectical context, and the standards for evaluating inferences, and to shed light on the interfaces between informal logic and argumentation theory, rhetoric, formal logic and cognitive psychology.

Argument, Inference and Dialectic Reviews

These papers develop a distinct, plausible and coherent approach to the understanding and evaluation of argument. This approach sets out a much more comprehensive agenda than is common in the current literature. The papers link issues in the philosophy of argument (`informal logic,' `theory of argumentation') with the mainstream of post-war Anglo-American philosophical work.
(David Hitchcock, McMaster University, Hamilton, Canada)
