## Description

desertcart.com: Critical Thinking in Psychology: Separating Sense from Nonsense: 9780534634599: Ruscio, John: Books

Review: Excellent work - One reviewer stated that the book presents thoughts that are self-evident, obvious, etc. Well, that may be true for some people, but not for the majority of people. I can't tell you how many people I know that believe - truly believe - in Area 51, the healing properties of crystals or homeopathic meds, alien abduction, and a host of other outlandish stuff! I'm also amazed at the number of people who will readily believe "If it's on the Internet, it must be true" or "Glen Beck [or insert other name here] said it, so it must be true". It's scary! There is WAY too much pseudoscience, crap, and lies out there, either perpetrated out of ignorance, but more than likely perpetrated with ulterior, self-serving, (and yes, even evil) motives. Therefore, this book is REQUIRED reading for the populous. It's not going to be a comfortable read for most people. Even I found myself whining, "Aw..." when Ruscio burst my bubble of ignorance on one topic, but I'm grateful. Ruscio covers a lot of ground and cites Carl Sagan's book, The Devil-Haunted World (another great book on this subject!) to great effect. This is certainly a book that should be read by anyone in the sciences, but particularly in the social sciences. I thoroughly enjoyed it, found it very satisfying, and highly recommend it. Even if you find that it was all obvious when you're done, it's still worth the time you spent reading it.

Very well written and easy to comprehend and dissect. The title does indeed speak volumes about the contents in this book. Interesting insights into what critical thinking entails.
