Critical Thinking for Business Students, 2e teaches basic critical thinking concepts and skills that students can apply to their readings.
Different from most critical thinking texts, which tend to focus on social and political issues, this book concentrates on business and is intended for use in undergraduate business courses.
Topics include evaluating an author�s arguments, uncovering underlying assumptions, and understanding why certain texts are more persuasive than others. Classic debates and contemporary issues in various fields of business are used as examples to demonstrate how critical thinking works. Each chapter contains many worked examples and exercises, giving students ample opportunities to practise and develop their own skills and judgment. Students will learn to analyze the various perspectives needed to understand information within everyday business, and the effective techniques of critical thinking will enhance their business writing and interpretation.
Short and succinct, with a simple and direct approach, this book will be the best first tool you could give your students. The techniques they learn will benefit them not only through their years in school but also the years after.
