About this audiobook

The following topics are included in this 2-book combo:

Book 1: What makes someone a critical thinker?

The attributes of such a person are elaborately described in this book. Alongside with that, the book highlights the many benefits of critical thinking, an often-neglected brain skills society needs to improve on.

However, most of the book is focused on relevant and irrelevant reasoning. So often, we attribute certain consequences to the wrong causes. We jump to conclusions based on limited information, emotions, or generalizations. This book will clear all that up by giving you new insights to determine what is relevant and what is not.

Book 2: What is a fallacy? Many people may have heard the word before but don’t grasp the magnitude of it. They erroneously assume that they aren’t guilty of embracing half-truths or false conclusions. And yet, those are often the ones who do it the most.


In this guide, you will receive greater comprehension of what fallacies are and close your blind spot to the truth of things.


Later, the author goes on to instruct you on inductive and deductive reasoning, which are two techniques that help people reach logical conclusions without going astray in their paths of thinking.


Last but not least, a long chapter is devoted to developing moral character, our conscience, and our ethics. Everything can be justified, but to live with our conscience is an art by itself.

This is an impressive book. For this reason, the 5 star review I'm writing. I've seen that some books are practically garbage, and that grieves me. However, this particular audiobook did not follow that trend. It's actually truly good. So, I appreciate it. It's an interesting concept, the whole premise of this book. You do not normally see that in many other books. And that's the reason why it can use a person like me to compose a few positive aspects of it.

By far, one of the best books within this area of interest. I didn't stop listening until completion. That's just how much I liked it. I was happy to hear the appropriate articulation of all the words by a proficient audiobook narrator. I carefully enjoyed listening to this particular book. It has all the components of a book about this issue that it ought to have. Having said this, I am normally positive anyway.
