Hardback. Condition: Mint. Dust Jacket Condition: Mint. Second Revised & Expanded Edition. A DICTIONARY OF COMMON FALLACIES Philip Ward. The Oleander Press, Cambridge. 1980 Second Revised Edition Two Vols. Vol One 304pp, Vol two 316pp Hardbacks. This two volume set is in MINT condition in MINT unclipped dustwrappers. There is a neat signature of ownership to the front paste downs of both volumes which is hidden beneath the dustwrapper front flaps. A Dictionary of Common Fallacies deals not only with the narrow field of purely logical fallacies, but also with a number of important ides or theories common either now or in the past which have been proved wrong by scientific experiment or observation, or are so intrinsically improbable that their widespread acceptance should be questioned. This two volume edition sets out, with the citation of acknowledged experts in art and archaeology, anthropology and biology, cosmology and geology, philosophy and religion, medicine and sociology, mathematics and engineering to attempt to scotch some of the nonsense touted yesterdat and today as sense.
