The Fallacy Detective: Thirty-Eight Lessons on How to Recognize Bad Reasoning

While I was researching this, I found some reviews claiming that some of the examples given in the book had political angle to them. As I wanted to buy this for my son, I ended up buying cheaper kindle version, reading through that, finding it just fine, and then I ordered print version for my son.

Easy to read and get through. Some fallacies tend to be super nuanced so the simple explanations help.

My sister and I read this book together and discussed each chapter to help understand each fallacy. Now being aware of the fallacies, it is easy to pick up on them in conversations with others. Great tool for rational thinking and discussions. I can see how these could be used in home schooling.

Easy to read, funny and well structured. I liked the exercises, the game at the end of the book and the final summary of the fallacies with additional examples - well thought.

I would read it with my children
