Product Description

Review

"'Students will not only be able to better understand their course material but also to produce better essays and assignments.' Focus on Business Education 'When teaching for the OCR AS-level course I found this an ideal book - the right depth for teachers and the right length for students. It is written with such obvious enthusiasm for lucid and practical thinking that it can be recommended to teachers and students in any field.' Roger Sutcliffe, Chairman, Sapere"


Product Description

Dr Roy van den Brink-Budgen has been developing assessment materials in Critical Thinking for eighteen years, and has been teaching it for ten. His significant contribution to the development of the subject as one of growing importance in the curriculum is well-known. Roy has also probably taught more INSETs for staff in Critical Thinking than anyone else in the country. His previous book "Critical Thinking for Students" became the most widely-used textbook in the subject, commended by both teachers and students on many courses. He lives in Ipswich, UK. In one volume it covers: Unit 1. Credibility of evidence; how context can affect credibility; issues of perception, language, interpretation, and judgement; different types of evidence; results of bias; possible weaknesses and strengths; using a credibility calculus; judging a case. Unit 2. Assessing and developing argument; differences between arguments and other forms of persuasion; what forms arguments can take; the nature of conclusions; assumptions and evidence; evaluating arguments; special kinds of argument content; producing arguments.

5.0 out of 5 stars I wholeheartedly recommend it., 3 Sep 2007
By Mr. S. A. Phillips - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This does everything I want in a student's textbook for AS Critical Thinking. It covers all of the material that's needed, and it does it in a way that doesn't treat the student as if they're stupid. Other books that I've looked at for this subject take it that a student can't be challenged to think - they have to be treated as if they can read and understand only very little. This book takes the reader through very clear explanations, followed by well-worked examples, and then provides relevant exercises. It has got what can be called an `intimate' style of writing where the reader feels that the author is talking to them directly. I wholeheartedly recommend it.
