Informative

Narration was a little robotic but once I got used to it. I found the book easy to follow and very informative.

Extremely engaging

Great introduction to critical thinking. Does not delve deep into the topics but provides you with enough information to paint a clear picture.

Great for bigginers, perhaps not as helpful for intermediate or advanced critical thinkers seeking to improve further.

Highly recommended

It does shift the way you think

While one read through won’t revolutionize the way you think, keeping it on hand as a regular reference seems to have the potential to frame your mindset in a more logical, crustal thinking sort of way.
I’m glad I purchased it

Good info, but very generalized

I was hoping more for critical thinking of everyday life and less of critical thinking about art, philosophy, and law.

Improve your brain

It has a bunch of little tips and guides throughout the book to help one improve their brain power. One major theme of the book is questioning our own interpretations and those of others. We have to be critical and analytical of our own assumptions and biases.
