The Art of Argument
By
Christopher Kee
Description
The Art of Argument guides readers
through the process of developing, defending and presenting a
compelling argument. Primarily aimed at students who are about to
undertake or participate in an international mooting competition, The
Art of Argument explains in a step-by-step process what to do when
you first get the moot problem, how to begin researching the subject
matter, the emotional highs and lows, why practice makes perfect, how
to handle yourself at the competition, and most importantly to have
fun. Through the process of mooting you learn how to construct
analytical arguments, to present your point logically and soundly and
to consider and address the queries and concerns of your opponent and
the Moot Master. For a law student there is no greater skill than
constructing a logical and compelling argument.
• This is the only book available
that focuses on international mooting competitions • It explains
in detail the secrets of success to winning an international moot,
and is the perfect manual for any student entering these competitions
