I see what the author was trying to do here.
if you're familiar with logical fallacies, this can be okay.
and can be used to explain logical fallacies to someone else, with the illustrations.
is it worth the buy?
meh, no.
go to youtube or websites and you will find much better explanations of both the general concept as well as individual fallacies.
could be okay as a prompt to introduce kids though, if you follow up with discussions to explain everything yourself.
awful as a self-sustaining primer.
[edit] the above review was for the first half the book.
originally a 3 star review.
it got really bad really fast, mixing up fallacy names, losing the gist of the fallacy in the cartoon, etc.
having seen the rest of the book, I don't think anyone should buy this.
even free, I would not recommend it.
I feel kind of bad saying that in a review, but.. gotta be honest.
note to the author: I bet you could clean up some of this, put in a bit more effort, and come out with a version 2 that would actually be pretty good.
it'd just take some more effort to get the cartoons more on point. add some explanation to each..
this could be worth something.
As it is.. I wouldn't even recommend a free version. sorry. :-(
