Attacking Faulty Reasoning: A Practical Guide to Fallacy-free Arguments[1] is a textbook on logical fallacies by T. Edward Damer that has been used for many years in a number of college courses on logic, critical thinking, argumentation, and philosophy.
It explains 60 of the most commonly committed fallacies.
Each of the fallacies is concisely defined and illustrated with several relevant examples.
The text was first published in 1995[2] The text also sets forth 12 principles that constitute a "Code of Conduct for Effective Discussion."
This code incorporates Damer’s fallacy theory and provides a procedural and ethical standard for the development of an effective intellectual style to be used when engaging in a rational discussion of important issues.
