歡迎開(kāi)啟輕松而充實(shí)的批判性思維之旅!本書(shū)將帶領(lǐng)大家理解思維規(guī)則、訓(xùn)練思維能力、規(guī)范思維過(guò)程,進(jìn)而合理判斷、明智行動(dòng)。全書(shū)共分十二章,作者以日常生活為素材,詳解論證方法,剖析思維謬誤,詳談思考、演講與寫(xiě)作,并討論道德、法律與美學(xué)領(lǐng)域的思辨,還提供了豐富的習(xí)題,幫助讀者一舉掌握批判性思維的方法和應(yīng)用。
這個(gè)世界的問(wèn)題就在于蠢人自以為是,智者充滿疑慮。羅素報(bào)紙、廣播、電視、電腦、手機(jī)……傳媒更迭促使思考加速,我們讓渡思考的權(quán)利,任由外部信息干擾自己的表達(dá)。我們一邊被套路,一邊抬杠,身心俱疲,一無(wú)所獲。面對(duì)重要問(wèn)題,思考需要減速。批判性思維是甄別信息、謹(jǐn)慎推斷的慢思考,是為了合理判斷與明智行動(dòng)而展開(kāi)的思維活動(dòng)過(guò)程。在本書(shū)的帶領(lǐng)下,讓我們共同開(kāi)啟批判性思維之旅,繞開(kāi)詭辯陷阱,抵達(dá)理性的彼岸。
