Critical Thinking
There is a persistent need in our world for the ability to effectively navigate arguments and reach logical conclusions. The seventh edition of Critical Consider the Verdict continues to provide a blueprint for developing skills for sound reasoning, judicious decision-making, and cogent conclusions. The text takes readers through such topics as relevant and irrelevant reasoning, the burden of proof, various forms of arguments and fallacies, statistics, evaluating premises, and more. Waller's knowledge and unique voice add to the value of the text. Each chapter is brimming with further opportunities to dive deeper and evaluate evidence through engaging exercises drawn from trial settings, jury deliberations, social and political topics, and advertising. Boxed sections, such as "Consider the Verdict," highlight additional areas for readers to deeply analyze realistic scenarios that emphasize each chapter's topic.
