Title: Selected Materials from Critical Thinking
Description: Critical thinking includes a variety of deliberative processes aimed at making wise decisions about what to believe and do, processes that center on evaluation of arguments but include much more. We believe the best way to teach critical thinking is to integrate logic, both formal and informal, with a variety of skills and topics useful in making sound decisions about claims, actions, and practices—and to make it all palatable by presenting it in real life contexts. This book is chatty in tone—the author of another critical thinking text griped about this (his book certainly does not have the problem)—but it doesn't duck important issues.
