"Vaughn's text covers all that an introduction to critical thinking should cover, is well-written, features thought-provoking examples and exercises, and is reasonably priced."--Nicholas Smith, Borough of Manhattan Community College
Lewis Vaughn's Concise Guide to Critical Thinking offers a compact, clear, and economical introduction to critical thinking and argumentative writing. Based on his best-selling text, The Power of Critical Thinking, Fifth Edition, this affordable volume is more manageable than larger textbooks yet more substantial than many of the smaller critical thinking handbooks.
