Featuring exercises for a wide range of subject areas, it also includes: real-world examples from many fields of research, which reflect the applicability of critical thinking in everyday life; new topical coverage, including the nature of reasons, assertion and supposing, narrow and broad definitions, circumstantial reasons, and reasoning about causal claims; and selected answers to various exercises to provide readers with instantaneous feedback to support and extend the lessons. -- |
