Maybe we should include some real world examples like there are in this article: http://www.philosophypages.com/lg/e14.htm CarbonUnit 17:05, 26 July 2007 (UTC)CarbonUnit[reply]

Absolutely. The ordinary reader is likely to feel lost with no concrete examples to apply these ideas to. Richard001 (talk) 06:20, 18 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, but who should do it? Llamabr (talk) 15:47, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Someone else, obviously. I just downloaded the eBook and, when I have time will see what I can do, as well as provide some discussion on the logical fallacies and cognitive errors. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.251.178.5 (talk) 05:33, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Should it be noted that ″Direct method of agreement″ is wrong?

Consider the example... if the logic controlling whether "w" is TRUE is (A AND B) OR (A AND E) then "A" is not "the cause (or effect) of the given phenomenon". The following paragraph states the correct interpretation... "A" is necessary but there's no proof that it's sufficient. Michael McGinnis (talk) 18:17, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
