The Thinking Toolbox is destined to be one of those rare must-have books for all homes where thinking skills are prized. The same brothers who wrote the popular book The Fallacy Detective have taken another intimidating topic and brought it down to earth.

The Thinking Toolbox describes the different tools you can use for various thinking tasks to solve problems. Written for students who want to learn logic and critical thinking skills, The Thinking Toolbox has lessons, exercises, and an answer key in the back. Some of the lessons covered are:

  • When it is dumb to argue

  • Using the scientific method

  • 5 rules of brainstorming

  • Who has a reason to lie?

  • How to analyze opposing viewpoints

  • How to analyze evidence and sources

  • How to list reasons why you believe something

    The Thinking Toolbox was written with the teen in mind, but I didn't hesitate to use it with our 11-year-old. The humorous illustrations give this book a friendly feel. The concepts are vital and, with discussion, could easily be within most preteens' grasp. The short chapters, interesting examples, spot-on humor, and thought-provoking exercises of The Thinking Toolbox are just what your student needs to develop his thinking skills.
