Applying critical thinking to the Internet, mass media, advertising, personal experience, expert authority, the evaluation of sources, writing argumentative essays, and forming a worldview, Think with Socrates resonates with today's students and teaches them how to apply critical thinking in the real world. At the same time, it covers the ancient intellectual roots and history of the field, placing critical thinking in its larger context to help students appreciate its perennial value.Author Paul Herrick incorporates original sources from newspapers, a variety of media, and philosophical writing, along with engaging 'interludes' featuring selections from Plato's dialogues.
