Think

This book really makes you think. It is well written and takes complex issues and makes them really understandable.

Thinking smart!

A continuation of the first book, Critical thinking 2 allows the reader to gain more useful skills. From examining how emtional words and phrases affect your judgement to the probabilty of truth and falsity, this book can really make one learn to examine issues better. I truly believe everyone who reads this book and the one before it can begin to see and read with a more critical eye. You can learn how advertisers, the media, politicians and others manipulate. Don't just buy it, truly use it to learn.

Critical Thinking Works Well.

This book teaches Logic and argumentation in a simple form. It also teaches how to recognize apropaganda and reasoning errors. I have enjoyed learning from this book and I have used it with my children with exelent results. I especially enjoyed the teahcer's manuals which allowed me to help my children learn. If your children are interested in law, this book is a must.
