Becoming a Critical Thinker: A User Friendly Manual (4th Edition)
"Diestler has definitely written the book to be just what its cover advertises—user friendly. It is quite easy to read and it presents difficult concepts in a basic way so that the average student has little trouble understanding them . ... A cut above many other critical thinking books." — R. Natasha Mohr,Creighton University"There are very few hooks that can introduce a beginner to the thrill of critical thinking in a way that seems fairly uncomplicated, and yet that fosters progressive competency. Diestler's book says to a potential student, 'Come and try critical thinking: it is not scary, and you will soon become better at it than you think!" — Lee Loots,California State University. Hayward"For the kind of class that I teach and the particular group of students I encounter, this text is the best I have found." — Steven Benfell,Western Michigan University
