Critical Thinking Skills


Author: Stella Cottrell

Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan

Date: September 29, 2005

Pages: 264

Description:

Critical Thinking Skills has taken the seemingly baffling art of analysis and broken it down into easy to understand blocks, with clear explanations, good examples, and plenty of activities to develop understanding at each stage. This easy to follow, step-by step guide to developing reasoning skills even applies the techniques to tasks such as reading, note-taking, and writing.

The book will assist you in practical ways such as helping you to:

  • recognise and understand the technical terms in critical thinking so you know what other people are referring to when they mention these, and so you can apply them yourself as relevant
  • build confidence in your own ability to apply critical thinking techniques
  • examine closely the opinions, views and arguments presented by other people
  • challenge other people's views from an informed perspective when this is appropriate
