Más información sobre el libro

Exploring the concept of straw man argumentation, this book connects linguistic pragmatics, philosophy of language, and rhetoric through a detailed analysis of how individuals distort others' words in debates. It provides 63 examples from various contexts, including politics and legal cases, to illustrate the tactics of misquoting and misreporting. By applying tools from argumentation theory, the author offers insights into assessing the accuracy of statements and defending against distortions, making it a valuable resource for scholars and practitioners in communication and rhetoric.
