Kyle Stedman (@kstedman) reads the bad idea "Students Should Learn about the Logical Fallacies" by Daniel V. Bommarito (@d_bomm). It's a chapter from Bad Ideas about Writing, which was edited by Cheryl E. Ball (@s2ceball) and Drew M. Loewe (@drewloewe). Don't miss the joke: the author of the chapter is disagreeing with the bad idea stated in the chapter's title.

Keywords: argument, invention, logic, reasoning, rhetoric
