Böcker av Michael A. Gilbert

Shows how developments in the field of Argumentation Theory have bearing on the arguments we encounter in everyday life. Michael A. Gilbert emphasises the value of understanding context, understanding who you are arguing with and knowing how to use that information to fruitfully settle disagreements.

Coalescent argumentation is the concept that arguments can function from agreement rather than disagreement. This text discusses how several components - emotional, visceral and kisceral are used everyday, and stresses argumentation as a means for understanding your own and your opposer's position.
