Best Mental Hygiene going...for about $2.00!

I took a course in college (way back in the 70's) about critical thinking and this was our textbook. A wonderful book. Even today, I wonder why so many folks do not "think about things." They were not trained to do so, and we see this popping up in all sorts of ways. Bobblehead TV commentators and radio hosts being the most obvious examples. Highly recommended. I have been looking for my copy in the "boxes in the garage" so I can give to my children; but if that search fails, I will buy some used copies and spread them around.

A significant book

I first read this book as a 17 year old....that was a long time ago and it is still one of the books that has most affected my life (I am now 50 years old). It is in some ways a very simple book to read, but the totality of it's information in terms of its' effect on the thinking process is quite profound. If everyone read this book, our society would be markedly different, and much less superficial. Unfortunately most humans are not critical thinkers. It is not one of those mystical 'new wave' - "how to improve yourself" texts. It is information that can be applied to your everyday life from the trivial to the vastly important. It is a very basic building block on how to really understand what is going on and if what is being said has validity. I firmly believe it is a book that should be required reading of every educated freshman in college. It has given me the ability to continue to think "out of the box" and not become stagnant. I recommend it for anyone who values thinking.
