Really basic. Its teaching you a college essay

No critical thinking in this book. if you dont know how to write an English essay for high school or college this will teach you the structure. Else you will not find it valuable. I couldn't get through it after the first few basic chapters. Perhaps it got interesting after that but I doubt it.

Critical Thinking

I would not have stuck with a book that long if I didn't think it was the best. It's always current, the exercises are good and helpful, much of the book is amusing while still imparting critical information.

Lovely

As a philosophy major I am always looking for interesting info on how people make decisions, etc. This book is an interesting read. Its not what I expected, but was very useful and interesting none the less. I really enjoyed the historical insight to how critical thinking has evolved over time.

Very Rudimentary, Awful Narration, Super Boring

This book reads like a summary in a 7th grade school textbook. It's a decent refresher or introduction on basic terminology w/ fine examples, but it is an absolute black hole of personality and style, and the narrator sounds like an AI a la Siri or Alexa. It's way too short and basic to justify how dry it is. Would be worth a listen or read if it were free-- you can probably just look up a PowerPoint presentation, Prezi, YouTube video, or schoolteacher's lesson plans on logical fallacies and learn all the same stuff, maybe more, and it's unlikely anything else you find will be less engaging.

Terrible narration

Robotic sounding narration ruins everything. Awful. Otherwise it may have been good, but I just couldn't see past it.

Informative Audiobook!

I loved the book, but it can be quite challenging to finish due to its monotonous recital.
