Claims are constantly being made, many of which are confusing, ambiguous, too general to be of value, exaggerated, unfalsifiable, and suggest a dichotomy when no such dichotomy exists. Good critical thinking requires a thorough understanding of the claim before attempting to determine its veracity. Good communication requires the ability to make clear, precise, explicit claims, or “strong” claims. The rules of reason in this book provide the framework for obtaining this understanding and ability.
This book / online course is about the the eleven rules of reason for making and evaluating claims. Each covered in detail in the book.

There's nothing illogical about that statement, as it is simply an opinion, which really carries no weight whatsoever. |

This would probably be a ad hominem (abusive) fallacy. Or a poisoning the well fallacy. |

This is prejudicial language . The proposition is that "Miki is likeable" accompanied by the claim that the "smart thing" is to agree with that (this is the "attach value" part mentioned in the definition). |
