Logic
The Fallacy Detective by Nathaniel & Hans Bluedorn
Thirty-six lessons challenge children and adults to recognize bad reasoning. After just a few lessons, our eyes were opened to how easy it is to get swept "off track" by faulty reasoning. You will learn how to spot errors in not only other people's logic, but yours as well. This text focuses on easy-to-read lessons centered on practical logic, such as fallacies we encounter in media. Each lesson explains new concepts, utilizing examples. Then readers are challenged with several examples of poor reasoning and led through a series of exercises in which they identify the fallacies. Featuring a Christian view of logic, written by homeschoolers, for homeschoolers; this is a must have for those desiring to develop strong reasoning skills. Ages 13 and up.

The Thinking Toolbox by Nathaniel & Hans Bluedorn
From the authors: "This book is like a toolbox, full of different kinds of tools you can use for different thinking tasks. Just as you use the wrench in a regular tool box to fix the sink, so you can use the tools we give you in this book to solve thinking problems." Entertaining and engaging lessons cover topics such as "When is it dumb to argue?", using the scientific method, how to analyze evidence, sources and opposing view points, how to list the reasons you believe something and more. Written in a similar style of their first book, this text is for children (13+) and adults who want to arm themselves with the tools they need to be effective thinkers in our world. |
