"To Argue Logically or with Heart- Mind and Belief" written by Dr. Saida Seddik, is considered an Intellectual contribution which shows the capability to expose modern issues and give the solutions to solve them. The author was able to resemble the everlasting conflict between logic and belief or mind and heart. Ever since the dawn of creation, this conflict occurred and will continue to occur till the last day of life. However, this book is an effective way to put the mind and belief in an open dialogue by implanting a new system of thinking and approaching modern issues of capitalism and imperialism. In addition to new ideas, this book has summed up about the conflict modern style of life is going through. It states that the conflict is embodied here as a conflict between two systems which are the imperialism and communism, the industrial and knowledge, modern and traditional, secular and spiritual, this conflict between two systems would lead in a better situation if people take the responsibility to act. The effectiveness of the people position is primordial to make the real change, their capacity to fight back, their instinct to fight their will to change weakened by strong and powerful corporations, tyrannical governments which impose the modeled system. The system which only benefit the elite without offering justice to worker class and middle class with small business that keeps the economy on. This injustice, the lack of justice: social, economic, political, and environment justice affect society, cause inflation, decrease the capability of purchase, and cause violence. The author discusses the imperialism system in all its levels: social, economic, political, environmental, and in technology. Her conception is based on philosophical, social, and futurist studies, she offers a specific approach from a new point of view. Therefore, this book is not a copy of what has been written before, but it is an attempt to foresee the future by introducing new ideas in a logical way using different methods to reveal the hidden truth. This book is so important for many reasons. Firstly, it attempts to interpret the rapid changes that happened to the world in the economic, social and political aspects from the middle of the twentieth century to the twenty-first century. Secondly, it uncovers the ugly face of imperialism and neo-colonialism which try to survive the critical economic, political and ideological collapse by the military invasion of the Third World, especially the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). The book explains that the true and main reason for this invasion is exploiting the natural resources of those areas. Thirdly, the book is a call for all human beings to come together despite all the differences in order to establish a new social system based on justice to all mankind in every known aspect, and thus, achieve love, mutual respect and peaceful coexistence. This book is divided into three chapters: Human Rights and Modernity, Imperialism Facing Impasse and Imperialism and the Future. The three chapters are connected together in a natural and logical way that flows smoothly from one topic to another in order to achieve the best understanding of what really is going on secretly under the table.The first chapter, Human Rights and Modernity, exposes the fake modernity and the universal declaration of human rights. How come declaring the human rights happens in the same time when genocides happen?! No wise human being would fail to understand that the so-called "human rights" was a western product to secure the welfare of western citizens at the expense of the welfare of non-western citizens. It is best described as thirty dead articles that will remain unachieved in the underdeveloped countries. Then, it shifts to talk about equality and whether or not it leads to justice. As a result, it discusses the compassion of Islam and the flexibility of the Islamic Law in serving the actual human right

How to Win Every Argument by Madsen PirieSound reasoning is the basis of winning at argument. Logical fallacies undermine arguments. They are a source of enduring fascination, and have been studied for at least two-and-a-half millennia. Knowledge of them is useful, both to avoid those used inadvertently by others and even to use a few with intent to deceive. The fascination and the usefulness which they impart, however, should not be allowed to conceal the pleasure which identifying them can give. We take a very broad view of fallacies. Any trick of logic or lan-guage which allows a statement or a claim to be passed off as something it is not has an admission card to the enclosure reserved for fallacies. Very often it is the case that what appears to be a supporting argument for a particular contention does not support it at all. Sometimes it might be a deduction drawn from evidence which does not sustain it. Many of the fallacies are committed by people genuinely ignorant of logical reasoning, the nature of evidence, or what counts as relevant material. Others, however, might be com-mitted by persons bent on deception. If there is insufficient force behind the argument and the evidence, fallacies can add enough weight to carry them through. This book is intended as a practical guide for those who wish to win arguments. It also teaches how to perpetrate fallacies with mischief at heart and malice aforethought. We have described each fallacy, given examples of it, and shown why it is fallacious. After any points of general interest concerning the history or occur-rence of the fallacy, we have given the reader recommendations on how and where the fallacy may be used to deceive with max-imum effect. We have listed the fallacies alphabetically, although a full clas-sification into the five major types of fallacy may be found at the end of the book. It is well worth the reader's trouble to learn the Latin tags wherever possible. When an opponent is accused of perpetrating something with a Latin name it sounds as if he is suffering from a rare tropical disease. It has the added effect of making the accuser seem both erudite and authoritative. In the hands of the wrong person this is more of a weapon than a book, and it was written with that wrong person in mind. It will teach such a person how to argue effectively, even dis-honestly at times. In learning how to argue, and in the process of practising and polishing each fallacy, the user will learn how to identify it and will build up an immunity to it. A working knowledge of these fallacies provides a vocabulary for talking about politicians and media commentators. Replacing the vague suspicion of double-dealing will be the identification of the precise crimes against logic which have been committed. Knowledge of fallacies can thus provide a defensive as well as an offensive capability. Your ability to spot them coming will enable you to defend yourself against their use by others, and your own dexterity with them will enable you to be both suc-cessful and offensive, as you set about the all-important task of making arguments go your way.

This book reclaims logic as a branch of philosophy, offering a self-contained and complete introduction to the three traditional systems of classical logic (term, sentence, and predicate logic) and the philosophical issues that surround those systems. The exposition is lucid, clear, and engaging. Practical methods are favored over the traditional, and creative approaches over the merely mechanical. The author’s guiding principle is to introduce classical logic in an intellectually honest way, and not to shy away from difficulties and controversies where they arise. Relevant philosophical issues, such as the relation between the meaning and the referent of a proper name, logical versus metaphysical possibility, and the conceptual content of an expression, are discussed throughout. In this way, the book is not only an introduction to the three main systems of classical logic, but also an introduction to the philosophy of classical logic.

An essential tool for our post-truth world: a witty primer on logic—and the dangers of illogical thinking—by a renowned Notre Dame professor Logic is synonymous with reason, judgment, sense, wisdom, and sanity. Being logical is the ability to create concise and reasoned arguments—arguments that build from given premises, using evidence, to a genuine conclusion. But mastering logical thinking also requires studying and understanding illogical thinking, both to sharpen one’s own skills and to protect against incoherent, or deliberately misleading, reasoning. Elegant, pithy, and precise, Being Logical breaks logic down to its essentials through clear analysis, accessible examples, and focused insights. D. Q. McInerney covers the sources of illogical thinking, from naïve optimism to narrow-mindedness, before dissecting the various tactics—red herrings, diversions, and simplistic reasoning—the illogical use in place of effective reasoning. An indispensable guide to using logic to advantage in everyday life, this is a concise, crisply readable book. Written explicitly for the layperson, McInerny’s Being Logical promises to take its place beside Strunk and White’s The Elements of Style as a classic of lucid, invaluable advice. Praise for Being Logical “Highly readable . . . D. Q. McInerny offers an introduction to symbolic logic in plain English, so you can finally be clear on what is deductive reasoning and what is inductive. And you’ll see how deductive arguments are constructed.”—Detroit Free Press “McInerny’s explanatory outline of sound thinking will be eminently beneficial to expository writers, debaters, and public speakers.”—Booklist “Given the shortage of logical thinking, And the fact that mankind is adrift, if not sinking, It is vital that all of us learn to think straight. And this small book by D.Q. McInerny is great. It follows therefore since we so badly need it, Everybody should not only but it, but read it.” —Charles Osgood

The second volume of Jonathan Barnes' papers on ancient philosophy contains twenty-seven pieces under the broad heading of Logic. The essays were written over a period of some forty years. Some of them were published in obscure places (and two or three of them in a foreign language). The French essays have been done into English; and all the essays have been retouched, and a few of them substantially revised. The first three essays in the volume are of a general nature, being concerned with ancient views on the status of logic--and with the distinction between formal and material inferences. The next nine items deal with different aspects of Aristotelian logic--the copula, negation, the categories, homonymy, and the principle of contradiction. Then come three papers about the connection (or lack of connection) between Aristotelian logic and Stoic logic. Two of the pieces discuss Theophrastus' theory of 'hypothetical' syllogisms. After that, things run more or less chronologically--a short notice on the Dialecticians, three essays on aspects of Stoic logic, a pair of papers on ancient theories of meaning, items on adverbs and connectors, on Philoponus and Boethius, and on an anonymous tract written in the autumn of 1007 AD. All in all, there is matter to divert scholars and students of ancient philosophy.

Psychiatrist and Holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl said, "Man's search for meaning is the primary motivation in his life." Yet some contemporary voices claim that increased knowledge of the material world must diminish our sense of meaning. Physicist Steven Weinberg said, "The more the universe seems comprehensible, the more it also seems pointless." Many people hold the material and meaningful perspectives separate in their minds, in a state of uneasy truce. The Heart of the Matter: A Case for Meaning in a Material World tells us that this split vision is not necessary, and shows us how the two views can be harmonized to give depth to our picture of the world. It looks at current scientific observations from astronomy, biology and physics, as well as insights from mathematics, philosophy, psychology and religion. We are left with a sense of wonder at both the mechanics and the values of the world, the "how" and the "why" of events. This book will appeal to everyone fascinated by how our world works, and especially to those who wonder how such marvelous mechanisms can leave room for the values and purpose that give meaning to our lives, and to our world.
