The Power Of Critical Thinking Lewis Vaughn, 2015
ISBN10: n/a    ISBN13: 9780199385423

"The Power of Critical Thinking offers a comprehensive introduction to the systematic, rational evaluation of the arguments, claims, and evidence that lead to beliefs. In clear and accessible language, the authors take students through all essential components of critical analysis--from identifying premises and conclusions, to recognizing common fallacies and misrepresentations of fact, to using deductive and inductive reasoning to deconstruct arguments, to overcoming psychological, social, and philosophical impediments that can cloud clear thinking. Emphasizing the importance of critical thinking to personal development and success with expanded "Field Problems" and new "Everyday Problems and Decisions Boxes," The Power of Critical Thinking provides students with the skills they need to engage meaningfully with the world around them--both inside and outside the classroom."--
