Fascinating fallacies

Really good useful information and examples provided by a good narrator. sometimes difficult to remember all the different types of fallacies and their names. Enjoyed it a lot well recommended.

Everyone's reading it, you should too otherwise you might get hit by lightening and starving children in fangdolia might not get their next meal. The audiobook uses highly advanced barb nanotechnology to give you tried and trusted information gathered over millions of seconds.

Be one of the select few to be better than everyone else you know by listening to this audiobook.
