A review by mystimayhem
An Illustrated Book of Bad Arguments by Ali Almossawi

3.0

Some fallacies are explained really well and the funny illustrations help as concise little examples. But there are a lot of fallacies that aren't explained very clearly at all. Also, it could have been better organized, maybe with a sectioned added here and there for comparing and contrasting similar fallacies. It seemed like a lot of the entries went like this: here is an example of fallacy x. It's actually an example of fallacy y with elements of x. Neither of which should be confused with fallacy z, which this particular example makes nearly indistinguishable.
It's not terrible. It's a good little refresher guide if logic and fallacies are something you're already fairly familiar with, but as an introduction to the subject, I think it would make it hard to distinguish between fallacies with commonalities.
