Bert Meuffels Books

The authors present their systematic empirical research on the conventional validity of Pragma-Dialectical discussion rules, grounded in a well-defined theoretical framework. They detail a series of experimental tests conducted to evaluate these rules, providing insights into their effectiveness and applicability in discussions.

"Fallacies and Judgments of Reasonableness" by Frans H. van Eemeren, Bart Garssen, and Bert Meuffels explores the validity of pragma-dialectical discussion rules through over a decade of empirical research. The authors examine how ordinary arguers perceive fallacies versus non-fallacies, offering insights into the interplay between theoretical and practical reasonableness.
