The Power of Critical Thinking by Lewis Vaughn

The Power of Critical Thinking by Lewis Vaughn

The Power of Critical Thinking: Effective Reasoning About Ordinary and Extraordinary Claims, Seventh Edition, provides the broadest range of tools to show students how critical thinking applies in their lives and the world around them. It explores the essentials of critical reasoning, argumentation, logic, and argumentative essay writing while also incorporating important topics that most other texts leave out, such as "inference to the best explanation," scientific reasoning, evidence and authority, visual reasoning, and obstacles to critical thinking.

This is a very good introductory Critical Thinking textbookIt comes from a Philosophical approach to the subject that focuses primarily on argument evaluation, and it does this very well. In particular, the treatments of deductive reasoning and explanation are excellent and some of the best I've seen in a textbook." - Adam Rosenfeld, University of North Carolina Greensboro
The quality of the book is high to excellent. It is strong in its comprehensiveness and simplicity. Ample blank margins greet the student's needs to take notes. . . . the text is educated without being pedantic." James A. Stieb, Drexel University.

Lewis Vaughn is the author or coauthor of numerous books, including Philosophy: Here and Now, Fourth Edition (2022), Bioethics, Fourth Edition (2020), The Power of Critical Thinking, Sixth Edition (2019), and Living Philosophy, Third Edition (2021), all published by Oxford University Press.
