Review
"I chose it because it presents critical thinking in an experiential way, offering students the opportunity to apply the critical thinking principles about which they are learning. I have continued to use the text because it's very effective, and the students report that they really learn the principles and skills, and they begin to apply them in their everyday activities, right away."
"This text uses writing as a means of thinking through a process. Other texts do not make this much use of this technique."
"One of the best features of Mayfield are the 'Building Arguments' sections. ...I also like the Chapter Quizzes and Study Questions and use them successfully in class and as parts of exams."
