This is not good tbh. I chose to audiobook it at working hoping it would help with studying for the LSAT but I actually think this book is actually full of bad examples and bad logic. DNF before I unlearn everything.
There are some wild over-generalizations and simplifications in this book. And outright poor critical thought. In one of the first examples, which is supposed to demonstrate a boss questioning their underlying assumptions, the same boss does question their old assumptions, only to then go on to simply make a new assumption! Assumptions in general are not good and the one the boss makes here is a classic example of where correlation is mistaken for causation (for people who read the book, when the author correlates the increased productivity of workers to one of the workers being very arrogant recently. For all we know there’s a different underlying factor that’s increasing their productivity or also it’s important to consider this could be a short term effect and not a long term one, maybe after another month their productivity would tank). Like I understand examples need to be simplified versions of life. But there are better examples to illustrate questioning your assumptions then this ridiculous one.
The author so far has really stressed the importance of thinking critically about tradition and things we take for granted, and this true, but they haven’t really mentioned that novelty is also worth questioning just as throughly. At this point, I’m really getting the vibes that this author is the kind of guy who would annoyingly play devil’s advocate in situations where it’s not needed or relevant. A lot of his examples of critical thinkers so far are CEOs or Socrates.
Giving it two stars because I think it seems to be well formatted and has some interesting factual info…but rip I’m so mad I wasted an audible credit
Practical self help book, that focuses on the basic of Logic, critical thinking and habits. Some good points and could be use as simple, quick reference. Experiment, try it out. If it work keep it, of make it better for you. If it doesn't move on.
A waste of money. This reads like a college project that was hastily put together over a couple of weekends without any rigor or proper editing, making for a very bad reading experience. It feels like someone just slapped a bunch of material together with no thought for consistency or coherence. I would avoid this book.
Here are some examples: Page 14. Bad English. "Once a critical thinker has analyzed the problem, dividing it into digestible definitions and categories, will then use this knowledge...". Who will then use this knowledge? Page 26. Wrong reference. In two successive paragraphs, the same company is first referred to as "JVS", and then as "JVC". It is really JVC. Page 32. Improper mix of past & present tense. "Bethany, a hard-working and fair-minded boss at a marketing firm, *was* in charge of a very talented staff. However, there *has* been..." Page 37-44. Confusing explanation of Bloom's Taxonomy. First, the steps in the taxonomy are presented. Then, a detailed description of each step is given, except that one step is described twice and a new step not in the original set of steps is introduced into the descriptions. Page 58. Bad English. A sub-heading is given as "Cognitive and Emotional Mature". Should it be perhaps Maturity? P285 para 2: incomplete sentence, "Total strangers could look at your bank balance and conclude." Conclude what? And so on and so forth.
This book is very poorly edited and not very well written. I read this with a student who isn't a native English speaker, and I had to waste so much time pointing out editorial mistakes and explaining how the grammar, etc. should be, that we hardly had time in our classes to discuss the content of the book.
I never knew that were other ways on how to think about solving problems that come up in everyday living. This book has really given me a new perspective on how to solve problems associated with living.
