Revised for the twentieth anniversary of its original release, the award-winning The Art of Argument is a robust, delightful, and creative text designed to introduce students as young as 7th grade to the foundations of logic and critical thinking.
The Art of Argument will impart to students the skills they need to craft accurate statements and identify the flawed arguments found so frequently in commercials, articles, books, movies, songs, TV shows, everyday discussions, and other media. This revised edition features enhanced explanations, numerous examples of each fallacy, an updated design, and a taxonomic visual guide to the informal fallacies.
This teacher’s edition provides the entire student text as well as robust resources, including additional explanations, supplemental resources and examples, pedagogical suggestions, alerts for common student pitfalls, answers to chapter exercises, and chapter and unit tests with their respective answer keys.

Aaron G. Larsen DA, Author
Aaron Larsen currently teaches history, Latin, logic, and rhetoric at Regents School of Charlottesville in Virginia. He previously taught at 2 classical schools in Pennsylvania. In 2001, Dr. Larsen joined a team led by Dr. Christopher Perrin and 2 other colleagues to help form Classical Academic Press. The motivation behind this endeavor was to produce exceptional Latin and logic curricula for the classical education movement. The first results of this collaboration included the publication of their logic text, The Art of Argument, and the 3-volume Latin for Children series. Aaron is also a coauthor of The Discovery of Deduction: An Introduction to Formal Logic and The Curious Historian series.
Aaron received his BA in history, with minors in philosophy and education, from Covenant College in Georgia. He completed his coursework for his DA in modern world history from St. John's University in New York and went on to write his doctoral thesis on the Meiji Restoration, which, as he likes to say, is "the most important event in world history that nobody's ever heard of."
