Document Summary

Essentially a matter of identifying arguments and premises. Page 102: exercise 3. 9 #2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 19, 22. Number the statements, and only the statements in the order they appear. Cross out any non-statements, any statements that aren"t premises or conclusions, and any redundancies. (underline premise and conclusion indicators if it helps) Diagram it: squares for premises, circle for the conclusion, circle-in-square, for any sub- conclusions, arrows for logical support, and put a line under dependent premises. One main reason we accept claims is because they"re grounded in personal experience. Broad definition: our senses, memory, judgements concerning the sources. Why do you think so? because i saw. General principle: it"s reasonable to accept the evidence provided by personal experience only if there"s no good reason to doubt it. But it seems more reasonable when we consider that there are a few particular circumstances or factors that are mistaken.
