This seventh e-book in the Dominating Discourses series teaches you how to determine when things are intrinsically connected and when this is merely assumed in a debate but any correlation between those events is really purely coincidental.
There is a tendency for people to believe that if two things happen in rapid sequence, the first must be the cause of the second. You are taught how to recognize when this false assumption is being used in an argument against you so that you can refute it, and you are also taught how to correlate unconnected events to your own benefit, taking advantage of the human tendency to perceive connections which don't actually exist.
You have probably heard people use the popular phrase “Everything happens for a reason”. They will then move heaven and earth to discover the reason. You are taught to recognize the tendency, then either negate it or take advantage of it.
Kenrick also provides a lengthy example of a debate, painstakingly detailing every strategy and rhetorical skill used both for and against, Illustrating perfectly how to apply the skills you have learned so far in practice.
