Synopsis
Designed for high-level reading courses, the primary focus of Reading for Thinking remains developing students' critical-thinking and reading skills. Flemming provides a thorough review of comprehension strategies before concentrating on critical-reading skills. This clear, logical sequence of instruction allows students to approach critical reading as a natural extension of essential comprehension skills rather than a discrete set of new strategies.
The Fourth Edition reflects Flemming's ongoing commitment to stimulating, informative selections that motivate students to read. The text also provides a closer look at textbook excerpts and a more extensive discussion of arguments. Plus, end-of-chapter readings enable students to practice applying their critical-reading skills on long passages.
At the end of every chapter, 3–7 tests enable students to assess their progress. Flemming introduces students to rhetorical questions, a subtle literary device often used in persuasive writing. She also covers imagery, the blend of fact and opinion, charged language, tone, and other key literary devices."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
