How can you use arguments to deflect difficult situations? Do you recognize all flaws in someone else's argument? In The Art of Being Right Schopenhauer teaches you how to use logical fallacy to win your argument regardless of whether or not truth is on your side. The book is mostly about winning debates even if that means ignoring logic and reason. The book lists 38 tricks that people use to defend their position or undermine others in order to win debates. The point of the book is to use these tricks and also to identify when they are being used against you or are being used in any other debate you might be interested in. Being aware of those tricks allows you to deal with them in a way they don't impact you on a debate. These tricks are meant to persuade not just the opponent but, more importantly, the public of the dispute. The crucial question is who will be seen to come off best. Who will win votes? This book is a fun dissection of argument strategy, and is highly recommended to anyone who enjoys a good argument.
