THE ANALYSIS ON THINKING IS VERY GOOD AND VERY HELPFUL FOR PEOPLE TODAY TO BE CRITICAL THINKERS.

Good foundational reading
This book kept me engaged the entire time. I'm excited to go on this journey of critical thinking. A must read. It laid a good foundation.

Quick and superficial summary.
While not being an exercise on critical. It does provide a very quick and brief overview of the history and methods of critical thinking, without actually providing a concise methodology that would help the would-be-reader to actually apply these teachings.

A Useful and Interesting Précis of the Development of Critical Thinking
I enjoyed the content and presentation of this concise, and thus somewhat superficial, reminder of who and how we as a humanity have developed our thinking. The need to question our selves is fundamental to growth, and this short but enjoyable read was an excellent reminder of this.

Ok for background - but not written by a philosopher or academic
Straight off the bat - the author doesn’t even know the correct names of philosophers. Referring to revered Scottish philosopher David Hume as “Desmond Hume” which was totally astounding they could even get this wrong, as I’m quite sure this is the name of a fictional character in some TV series. I was expecting a thorough, academic and accurate book about critical thinking, however this is more of a brief history on a number of philosophers, with very little depth as to the way in which their history of ideas relate to critical thinking. I stopped reading instantly when I saw the famous David Hume referred to as Desmond. I can see why this is free but honestly you are better off reading something online from a reputable source or going to the library. Please fix the book as it is most definitely David Hume and not Desmond Hume.
