The idea
Real prose is processed in a fixed order: locate the conclusion, discard filler, standard-form the premises, supply missing pieces charitably, classify deductive or inductive, then test with the matching machinery.
In practice
Every technique in the catalog, arranged as an assembly line.
Where people slip
Order matters. Testing before reconstructing means testing something the author never said.
Your place on the trail
Every lesson rests on earlier ones and opens later ones. Tap any to jump.
