Inhaltsangabe

A Critical Thinking Workbook: Formal and Informal Reasoning communicates the necessity of organized and structured thinking and writing in students' lives.
A Critical Thinking Workbook grabs the student's attention early in the text by assuming his/her informal familiarity with the structure of ordinary language and uses it to expose the logical skeleton lying underneath the camouflaging layers of writing style and rhetorical flourish. The student is then introduced to the semantic method of truth tables and the synaptic method of natural proof theory as distinct methods of proving deductive validity. Finally, students are introduced to natural language fallacies and inductive logic.
A Critical Thinking Workbook:

• is written in a friendly and encouraging style.
• introduces the reader into the world of propositional logic, argument presentation, truth tables, natural proof theory, natural language fallacies, and inductive logic.
