	'Fallacy Files': Loads of fallacies with examples, sub-fallacies, links, etc. Uses frames.

	Argument mapping Tutorials. Nice set of simple tutorials on (you've got it) mapping arguments. Which is nice.

	Lots of notes on Rhetorical Theory and its advocates, including a whole bunch of Greeks and a raft of other theorists. Clunky layout but stuffed with content.  (at Wayback)

	Andrew Cline's 'Rhetorica' site including analysis of speeches and a nice rhetoric primer.

	Professor Barry Eckhouse's online course material on 'Logic, Argument and Persuasion' at rhetor.com. This is how the Greeks did it. A goldmine of logic, but may be too academic for some.

	Aristotle's 'Rhetoric' online.  'Rhetoric may be defined as the faculty of observing in any given case the available means of persuasion' (from book 1, chapter 2). Heavy going.

	A quick summary of Aristotle's persuasion techniques. (at Wayback)

	A beautifully designed, ad-free site that teaches critical thinking over four chapters. It's nominally about economics, but is general enough to be widely applicable.

	A multi-page, ad-free, detailed site on logical fallacies from Stephen Downe.

	A nice, simple and long list of fallacies in arguments.

	A 'Logic Classroom' self-study guide for classical logic from San José State University. Includes downloadable zip file of the whole show.

	A deep resource, nicely presented, from Colorado State University, aimed at helping students write logical and clear arguments in their academic essays.

	The 'LogicTutor' site by Michael Green, designed to go with his books 'The Art of Reasoning'. Includes exercises and explanations.

	'Rhetorical Resources' - A nice set of lecture notes on rhetoric, from Bradley U.

	'Humbug online' - A friendly online blog about fallacies, from the authors of "Humbug: the skeptic's field guide to spotting fallacies in thinking".

	'American Rhetoric' - Lots of rhetoric and speeches - in both text and audio. Both Christian and Political rhetoric are included, as well as many classic movie speeches.
