This revised edition draws on years of lecturing experience and
feedback from students. The result is a popular, lively and
accessible book which offers an improved and reader-friendly
introduction to the art of clear thinking. Developing and applying
critical reasoning skills is globally recognised as a basic
competency, like reading and writing. Critical thinkers who think
for themselves are the key role players in a free and democratic
society. Several up-to-date and new examples from major South
African socio-political events from the past few years are given,
such as the Zuma trial, political conflict, race relations, and
xenophobia. Other new examples are based on events that took place
in the rest of Africa and the world. New exercises are drawn from
newspapers, advertisements, political speeches, literary works, the
Internet, and debates about xenophobic violence, crime, the death
penalty, abortion, euthanasia, inequality, and health care.
Numerous activities lead readers to practise critical reasoning
skills. The book is valuable to students of Philosophy but also for
those studying Communication Science, Development Studies, Health
Care, Law, English Studies, Medical Ethics, Political Science,
Psychology and Public Administration.
