I'm going to add this book to the list of "books that so thoroughly cover a concept that I'm never going to argue about it again but rather send people a copy of this instead." I can't recommend this enough for literally everyone. So many fallacies and social-media arguments are undermined so thoroughly in these pages I can't even begin to list them all. Do yourself a favor and put this in the to-read pile.
