Publisher's summary

The Thinking Toolbox has been the best selling text for teaching critical thinking skills and introduction to logic for over 15 years.

This book is like a toolbox, full of different kinds of tools you can use for different thinking tasks. Just as you use the wrench in a regular tool box to fix the sink, so you can use the tools we give you in this book to solve thinking problems.

- When it is dumb to argue

- Using the scientific method

- Five rules of brainstorming

- Who has a reason to lie?

- How to analyze opposing viewpoints

- How to analyze evidence and sources

- How to list reasons why you believe something

- And much more

We wrote this book for children and adults who want to learn logic and critical thinking skills. The Thinking Toolbox follows the same style as The Fallacy Detective with lessons and exercises and an answer key in the back. Parents and teachers, as well as anybody who wants to learn logic, will find The Thinking Toolbox easy to use and practical.

Features:

- Fun to use not dry like a math textbook

- Can be used after The Fallacy Detective

- Introductory teaches skills you can use right away

- Self-teaching format

- For ages thirteen and older

Please note: The audio references supplemental material that is not included with the purchase of this audiobook.

Critic reviews

"The Bluedorns have certainly achieved their goal of creating a logic textbook that is neither boring nor distant, but rather informative, approachable, enjoyable, and valuable." —Jordan J. Ballor at the Acton Institute - Acton Institute web site

very relatable

This is very well done and easy to keep up with. Relatable situations that help make sense of the idea he's across. I like how he takes a pause after his question so you have time to hit pause and discuss your child's answer and then see if they were right.
