THE BRIEF-MAKER"S NOTEBOOK
By WARREN C. SHAW, Dartmouth College vii + 240 pages, in Biflex Binder
"The Brief-Maker"s Notebook" presents a logical system for a.n.a.lyzing debaters" propositions and supplies a blank form of brief based upon this system. It is devised to accomplish several aims:
1. To enable the debater to use a loose-leaf system of note-taking.
2. To help him to investigate details of his case without losing his grip upon the problem as a whole.
3. To enable him to write a brief directly from his notes without rearranging the material.
4. To crystallize his methods of a.n.a.lysis.
5. To apply the theory of argumentation in the preparation of a debate and to develop thoroughness and accuracy.
The material consists of sets of forty pages each. Each set is designed for the complete handling of one proposition.
