The Logical Worldview

Daniel P. Dal Monte

The Logical Worldview: Skills to Distinguish Fact from Fiction in the Contemporary Information War is centered around understanding the ways in which individuals can discern truth amidst a deluge of information, particularly in an era dominated by propaganda and misinformation. This book explores the essential role of logic in analyzing cognitive processes and distinguishing knowledge from opinion to reason effectively. The text systematically explores the underpinnings of logical reasoning, the construction and analysis of fallacies, and the framework used to construct coherent and justified worldviews. The chapters are designed to guide readers through the principles of reasoning, the significance of historical context in understanding contemporary issues, the cultivation of intellectual virtues, and the discernment between logic and rhetoric. The Logical Worldview is well-suited for courses in logic, critical thinking, and epistemology at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. It provides tools that are fundamental for students in philosophy, political science, and related disciplines where evaluating arguments and evidence is vital for academic success.
