Summary

In this chapter, we will be concerned with the relationship between the evidence and the claim. Together with the truth and quality of the evidence, discussed in Chapter 4, this is the major consideration affecting the strength of an argument. The question is what enables the evidence to count as evidence for the particular claim.
