Sometimes the most important concepts are overlooked by accident. This is certainly true of critical thinking as an attribute that is desirable at work and in personal relationships. No aspect of life goes untouched by the need for it. Yet, there are few workshops on the subject and fewer articles on the Web. It may seem obvious and is thus ignored, or it may be too abstract and illusive—something you study in philosophy class. This e-book, “Critical Thinking: 26 Tools to Develop Competence in Critical Thinking and Analyzing or Evaluating Information with Confidence,” is a succinct approach to the subject for the layman with the intention of helping readers understand the concept and how to improve the quotient they already have. Since it is a product of most school systems, some prior knowledge is assumed. However, most people can benefit from exercises to develop more competence in evaluating information in life situations. As a result, they can internalize more confidence and do better in their daily lives, particularly in work contexts. It is a kind of “how to” approach containing 26 tools and some additional advanced considerations

Among the many topics are:

• A brief history of critical thinking in the field of philosophy: Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Thomas Aquinas, and John Dewey
• Tips and exercises to acquire a better level of critical thinking or hone what you now have short and long term
• The role of emotion and bias in making judgments: when do they belong?
• How we are a product of our schooling and environment
• The importance of self-awareness and self-assessment to grow in stature
• Building confidence by improving the mind and its optimal functioning
• Common denominators of critical thinkers
• How important is it to have logic and reason?
• Decision making in a nutshell
• The danger of solipsism and living exclusively within the self
