Crimes Against Logic: Exposing the Bogus Arguments of Politicians, Priests, Journalists, and Other Serial Offenders by Jamie Whyte
4.0
- Jamie Whyte is a past lecturer of philosophy at Cambridge University, and winner of Analysis Journal's prestigious prize for 'best article by a philosopher under 30' (I'll have to remember to look up some other winners...)
- Whyte brings humour and contemporary examples to his deconstruction of illogical statements made daily by authority figures, friends and acquaintances, and politicos
- many concepts remain quite complex, and beyond my comprehension
- similar to, but not as accessible as, Mark Kingwell's works
- still, a worthwhile read
