                    How to Win Every Argument
              An introduction to Critical Thinking
                        Nicholas Capaldi
                        ISBN 156731-330-2

I found this very interesting book on the discount shelf at my
local Barnes and Noble, the only thing better than a good book is
a good book on sale.

This very dense little book (204 pages) very thoroughly covers a
great deal of excellent material on arguing intelligently. It
covers a wide range including much about our old friend Ad Hominem.

I am reminded of Strunk and Whites "The Elements of Style".
