Critical thinking skills : developing effective analysis and argument -- 2nd ed.

Stella Cottrell (2011)

This book explains the concept of critical thinking and then goes on to demonstrate how developing this skill can help with analytical reading, assesing the work of others and ultimately to produce better academic writing.

Clearly presented in segments of information that become progressively more challenging throughout the book with practice activities to accompany each new concept.

Covers topics useful to any academic research such as identifying and analysing argument, recognising more detail, looking for flaws in reasoning, how to conduct a literature search and critical reflection on your own and others' work.
