"In the world of disinformation and decentralization, the world needs students and citizens who can critically think and ask questions and find answers using decision-making mechanisms that are research-based and not based on anecdotes, ad hominem, or opinions. Dr. Nathan Lang-Raad takes the research body of how we critically think and creates not only a philosophical argument, but provides strategies of how teachers, schools, and individuals can build and practice critical thinking skills. Dr. Lang-Raad allows us to rethink how we think about critical thinking and gives us all a call to action to bring forth strategies to implement it within the schools and institutions we serve in."
