"In the following essay, which is in four parts, it is what is considered the informal-fallacy literature that will be reviewed. Part 1 is an introduction to the core fallacies as brought to us by the tradition of the textbooks. Part 2 reviews the history of the development of the conceptions of fallacies as it is found from Aristotle to Copi. Part 3 surveys some of the most recent innovative research on fallacies, and Part 4 considers some of the current research topics in fallacy theory."

"I hope that by the end of this video you'll get a better understanding of what a logical fallacy is, and why we might want to avoid them. But also why in some contexts, what might seem to be fallacious reasoning, might actually be much more defensible than previously thought." youtu.be/PthVXsLEqh8 @philosophy [2]
