Carl Cohen

Carl Cohen is a prominent figure in the field of Informal Logic, which studies reasoning as it occurs in everyday life and discussions. He emphasizes the importance of understanding arguments in context, rather than just assessing their formal structure. Cohen advocates for critical evaluation of both the content and the context of arguments, promoting clear communication and logical reasoning in public discourse. His work highlights that effective argumentation involves not just logical principles but also the real-world situations in which arguments are made, making it relevant to various fields such as philosophy, law, and education.
