>Logical fallacy is when something I dont like
You have to understand logic first. Fallacies are just inconsistencies. Its like saying list every wrong answer to a math question.
You dont even understand the nature of an inconsistency or logic itself, or nature.

When I was a kid, I thought Lex Luthor was a black dude. It surprised to find me that he wasn't supposed to be African American.

There was a time when OP would be a troll and he would have masterfully gotten a large number of anons to spend hours arguing about a tiny little semantic detail and when it was over they would have congratulated OP. I miss old/lit/.
>but it is a troll!
Even worse, just come off like a moron either way.

There is no such thing as logical fallacies so there can't be such a book
Most "logical fallacies" are a way to evade a perfectly consistent argument
You can take a piece of hardbound paper and write "I don't like X proposition, give me more of what I consider to be evidence"
And you'd have all "fallacies" in one

Knowledge, Reality, and Value - Mike Huemer
An outstanding introduction to philosophical thinking that outlines statistical fallacies and how some informal fallacies are acceptable inductive inferences (e.g., for most of our beliefs, appealing to popularity is an acceptable inductive shortcut).

How many of the logical fallacies are actually just methods of rhetoric?
