In class: Logos artifact

For my logos artifact, I brought in one of my nursing text books. It is a text book about foundations of mental health. It appeals to logos because it has a lot of credible facts that appeal to logic. Since it is specifically dealing with mental health, it appeals to logos in both the aspects of logic as hard facts and logic as reason since mental health is something that is a somewhat debatable topic. It presents good evidence back up with many sources to provide a factual argument about the text which the reader is reading. I think just the cover of the book is an appeal to logos as the book is called Foundations of Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing. It encompasses many aspects of logos, presenting evidence based on research, experiments, facts, logic, and other way. It is not just another text book that spits out information uniformly, but educates and convinces with the way the facts in the books are presented and appeals to the logos of the readers looking to find fact and reason to better guide their nursing care.
