Описание: Teaches the basic principles of good reasoning through an examination of widely held beliefs. By explaining what distinguishes knowledge from opinion, science from pseudo science, and evidence from hearsay, this book helps the reader develop the skills needed to tell the true from the false and the reasonable from the unreasonable.
Описание: This is the first comprehensive account of the concept and practices of deduction that brings together perspectives from philosophy, history, psychology and cognitive science, and mathematics. It will be of interest to a range of readers, from advanced students to senior scholars, and from philosophers to mathematicians and cognitive scientists.
Описание: By means of a logical investigation of frames and frame concepts, Andreas devises a novel logic of tractable reasoning, called frame logic. Andreas then builds on these analyses to construct a novel logic of tractable reasoning he calls frame logic, together with a novel belief revision scheme that is tractable for frame logic.

Описание: We all engage in the process of reasoning, but we don`t always pay attention to whether we are doing it well. This book offers the opportunity to practise reasoning, with the aims of developing an awareness of the importance of reasoning well and of improving the reader`s skill in analyzing and evaluating arguments.
Описание: Our ability to think, argue and reason is determined by our ability to question. Questions are a vital component of critical thinking, yet we underestimate the role they play. Using Questions to Think puts questioning back in the spotlight.
Naming the parts of questions at the same time as we name parts of thought, this one-of-a-kind introduction allows us to see how questions relate to the definitions of propositions, premises, conclusions, and the validity of arguments. Why is this important? Making the role of questions visible in thinking reasoning and dialogue, allows us to:
- Ask better questions
- Improve our capability to understand an argument
- Exercise vigilance in the act of questioning
- Make explicit what you already know implicitly
- Engage with ideas that contradict our own
- See ideas in broader context
Breathing new life into our current approach to critical thinking, this practical, much-needed textbook moves us away from the traditional focus on formal argument and fallacy identification, combines the Kantian critique of reason with Hans-Georg Gadamer’s hermeneutics and reminds us why thinking can only be understood as an answer to a question.
