Chapter 8, Additional Exercise 1: Finding Other Logical Fallacies

In groups of two or three, go to a search engine and search for "logical fallacies." Browse some of the sites that the search returns, looking for two or three examples of logical fallacies that are not listed in the chapter. In a brief presentation to the class, describe the logical fallacies, explain why using such reasoning would detract from the persuasiveness of an argument, and show how such reasoning could be refuted.
