Product Description
More than any other textbook, Moore and Parker's Critical Thinking has defined the structure and content of the critical thinking course at colleges and universities across the country--and has done so with a witty writing style that students enjoy. Current examples relevant to today's students bring the concepts of critical thinking to life in vivid detail. This ninth edition offers an abundance of new exercises and examples, as well as a renewed focus on the importance of developing critical thinking skills.

2 out of 5 stars Too much extraneous info.   May 24, 2010

This book is ok, but has too much extra long story telling, makes too many references to the likes of Britney and Paris, and some concepts were confusing except for chapters where we just concentrated on word definitions.
For instance, the logic charts can be confusing if your instructor doesn't break them down for you. It would have been more challenging had the authors given us more not so obvious errors in critical thinking instead of giving obvious examples one might notice in young Hollywood.
I took this online, and my instructors notes were more helpful.

Very good condition as a used book. Received it in a timely manner. Very easy to understand, since it's literature is more modern with today's real world events and how to deal with the reliability of information.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent and entertaining textbook   October 4, 2009

We are using this textbook for my critical thinking course. It does an excellent job of making informal logic interesting. Even when you are reading about things you already know, Moore and Parker make it a fun read by adding in plenty of real-life examples. The exercises for each chapter are tedious but straightforward and effective -- they require a lot of time to complete but I always have a better understanding of the material after completing them. I would recommend this book for any informal logic course.
