Political Logic: Defeating Conservative Theories Of Rationality

Book Summary

Ever get into an argument with a conservative? If you have, you know just how exasperating it can be. Ever wish you had a weapon that could destroy his argument? In his book Political Logic: Defeating Conservative Theories of Rationality, author Larry Allen Brown shows how to apply an approach that merges the Zen of martial arts and deductive reasoning, in which you use the weight of your opponent's argument against him. The conservative always uses inductive reasoning to make his case because he's pushing his own theory of rationality. But inductive reasoning can never prove itself as true. So don't push back. The best weapon to use against the conservative is his own argument. Brown shows through examples that we see every day exactly how this approach can change the way we look at the political landscape. Conservatives are famous for their claimed "values." However, the only value that matters is truth and that point is driven home in this manual for defeating the conservative argument.
