Opis

"Critical thinking for all" is about the applicability of the phenomenon of this special way of thinking in a real life self help situation. This is a simple, honest definition and analysis of Critical Thinking at the ordinary level for anybody who is interested in the better management of his or her life. Using real life examples as in Mrs. Hilary Clinton's mind burgling lies to expose individual short comings and personal dishonesties, the West African Ebola epidemic, American's righteous racism, Israeli chosen people complex and the Arab Islamic fundamentalism to expose the pervasive lack of critical thinking all around. The book examines the usefulness of Critical Thinking in the management of individual daily life, it explains how it is acquired and how it can be applied to real life situations through a simple learning process. In a simple narrative style it uses current situations, like the Ferguson, Missouri county crisis, the Walmart shop shooting to illustrate the effects of negative direct and indirect nurturing. In the final two chapters the author explains the step by step, processes of acquisition and the application of the skills of Critical Thinking including what he called the divine design. Here he links the two components of Critical Thinking skills, Honest and open mindedness to the theme of the "ten commandments" suggesting that the skill of honesty and open-mindedness are embedded in the commandments and that as difficult as they are to acquire by some, they may be easily achieved through the gift of grace from God, "you only have to ask."
