Thinking is at the heart of our everyday lives, yet our thinking can go wrong in any number of ways. Bad arguments, fallacious reasoning, misleading language, and built-in cognitive biases are all traps that keep us from rational decision making. What can we do to avoid these traps and think better? Is it possible to think faster, more efficiently, and more systematically?

The Philosopher’s Toolkit: How to Be the Most Rational Person in Any Room, taught by award-winning Professor Patrick Grim of the State University of New York at Stony Brook, arms you against the perils of bad thinking and supplies you with an arsenal of strategies to help you be more creative, logical, inventive, realistic, and rational in all aspects of your daily life.

Editorial Review

Have you ever wanted to become a master of defusing bogus arguments? Or develop mental shortcuts (heuristics) that make life more efficient? Do mental models, game theory, statistics, and visualization pique your interest? Then this Great Course has your number. Far from a dry series of college lectures, this detailed but tightly written title is designed to provide you with a strong, working knowledge of logic that will immediately and positively affect your day-to-day life. —Sean T., Audible Editor

First of all, let me say that I was disappointed that the author makes multiple referrals to drawings and figures in the accompanying pdf, making it hard to follow at first. I was kinda wanting to drop the book after lesson 1. However, once I got used to the occasion referrals (they are lesser in later chapters), the lessons just kept getting better. I finished this book in record speed, due to the captivating materials and great performance. This will be my new standard for future courses in this series!!

My new standard for The Great Courses

The course is excellent and at a pace for young learners to follow should they enjoy books that helps build self-efficacy.
People learning new languages such as English and fluent enough, the instructor speaks clearly and at a pace to stimulate the imagination.
I recommend this book to those who want to stimulate a better perception in life.

Great for diversified thinking 🤔
