Learning to Think Things Through: A Guide to Critical Thinking Across the Curriculum
by Gerald M. Nosich
Nosich wrote this book to help students engage in critical thinking within the discipline or subject matter they are studying. The book is ideal for instructors addressing the critical thinking component in composition courses, sciences, humanities, the professins--in any field.
The author, a professor at the University of New Orleans, may be more interesting than his book. He rode a motorcycle to Baghdad; he has worked as an immigrant ditch-digger in Switzerland; been imprisoned by Communist authorities in Czechoslovakia; stowed away on a Sicilian ship to Algeria; sailed up the Nile with his family in a felucca; and lived with Maasai warriers in central Africa and in a Yurt in Mongolia.
