The book mentions Enthymemes, but I had to go to Wikipedia for a good description. It’s a kind of logical syllogism used in rhetoric where you leave out a piece. Wikipedia uses the following example:
The complete formal syllogism would be the classic:
All humans are mortal. (major premise – unstated)
Socrates is human. (minor premise – stated)
Therefore, Socrates is mortal. (conclusion – stated)
