Samenvatting

How to Think about Weird Things is a concise and engaging text that offers students a step-by-step process by which to determine when a claim is likely to be true.  Schick and Vaughn provide a course on critical thinking, with a focus on neither debunking nor advocating specific claims.  Rather, the authors clarify principles of good reasoning that enable students to evaluate any claim, no matter how strange, for themselves.  By teaching readers how to distinguish good reasons from bad reasons for believing a claim, this text helps students improve their decision-making abilities and provides them with a powerful weapon against all forms of hucksterism.
