Gula\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNonsense is the best compilation and study of verbal logical fallacies available anywhere. It is a handbook of the myriad ways we go about being illogical--how we deceive others and ourselves, how we think and argue in ways that are disorderly, disorganized, or irrelevant. Nonsense is also a short course in nonmathematical logical thinking, especially important for students of philosophy and economics. A book of remarkable scholarship, Nonsense is unexpectedly relaxed, informal, and accessible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRobert John Gula (1941-1989) was educated at Colby College and Harvard University and taught a course on logic among many other subjects at the Groton School in Massachusetts.
