Within chapter 7 of their book "Good Reasons", Faigley and Selzer approach the various topics used to develop an effective argument.  They present examples on various types of arguments in order to support their thesis. They bring up the point that every argument should have a strong point in which it is based upon. The purpose of this particular chapter was to prove that in order to have an effective argument a sufficient amount of research must be put into the topic. This chapter was intended to be an education piece to help those struggling with forming an effective argument.
