The book entitled “Theoretical and Practical Principles of Research in the Humanities and Social Sciences” written by Ali Delavar has been used for the research method course in the Humanities and Social Sciences majors for many years and has been reprinted many times. The present research has criticized this work through a documentary analysis method and relying on the theory of "division" in Aristotelian logic presents the drawbacks of "logical presentation of content" in this book in chaptering and presenting subheadings and developing contents under the titles, each of which may disrupt the process of teacher –like author-audience relationship. This critical analysis has developed a model of the content classification method and its logical structure based on "division logic" which is noteworthy as a theory in developing the logical structure of the texts. In addition to structural review, the present research focuses on the formal and content review of the book, and has provided numerous considerations in the formal and content review of this work.
