Product Description
Review
'Just the right amount and depth of very practical exercises.' - Adam Morton, Bristol University
'Very good for general readers or students wanting to work on their own.' - James Cargile, University of Virginia
'This book is an excellent guide to the process of critical thinking. The methodological accounts are supported by much imaginative illustrative material which should be welcomed by those interested in improving their abilities at reasoning, evaluating arguments and structuring presentations.' - Douglas Fenn, University of East London
'All the virtues of the first edition - lucidity, judicious choice of realistic examples, emphasis on techniques rather than learning lists of fallacies - are retained in the second edition. The changes are unobtrusive and for the better. The updated examples maintain the topical and contemporary feel and serve to underline the practical importance of the techniques that the book propagates.' - John Divers, Leeds University, UK
Praise for the first edition:'For the reader wanting a general introduction to critical reasoning, this book is a good one. It contains some good advice and plenty of practical examples.' - Philosophy Today
'Admirable clarity, supported by a wealth of useful examples and exercises.' - Philosophical Books
