Saying What You Mean: A manual for contested words

Neither has lied and neither hasmisquoted. They were reading one sentence two different ways, and nothing in theargument was built to notice.This is a working manual for the moment a word stops being free and starts being arule -- in a policy, a statute, a platform's terms of service, an accusation. It setsout seven steps for taking a contested sentence apart and nine for the argument it wasa premise in; six norms for doing either in good faith, each printed with what it willcost the person who keeps it; five verdicts an argument can honestly end at; and fourworked audits of live material, one of which produces nothing and is printed anyway.Seven exercises are answered in full.It does not ask anyone to speak more precisely. Chapter 7 is the argument againstthat, and it names who pays.
