Breakthroughs in Critical Reading Skills Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I find this book fantastic. It will help students learn how to read passages, charts, cartoons or ads. It has five chapters and on page 1 to 11 there is a pre-test. The test will show students on what chapter they should focus. Besides, there is a post-test at the last part of this book. Students can evaluate their work and will know what to review. "Main Idea and Details","Summarizing and Paraphrasing","Making Inferences" or "Predicting" are included in some chapters. By using this textbook, students will acquire critical reading and thinking skills. I am going to use this book as a textbook for my English class.

Critical Thinking Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We are using this textbook for my critical thinking course. It does an excellent job of making informal logic interesting. Even when you are reading about things you already know, Moore and Parker make it a fun read by adding in plenty of real-life examples. The exercises for each chapter are tedious but straightforward and effective -- they require a lot of time to complete but I always have a better understanding of the material after completing them. I would recommend this book for any informal logic course.

Critical Thinking Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have taught critical thinking and argument for fourteen years, and Moore and Parker's Critical Thinking is the best in its field, bar none. That is why it is in its eighth edition. You'll see imitations, but this is the original--the one that started it all and brought critical thinking out of philosophy classrooms and to the masses of non-philosophy college students.
Don't get me wrong, Parker and Moore do not water down or pander to the at-large reader, but rather use intelligence, media issues, and humor to teach "heavy" concepts in a most palatable and efficient way. When students start using the language of a discipline easily and naturally, and they understand its concepts, the writers have done their work. Parker and Moore make getting there insightful and fun.
