Supplementary Books on Critical Thinking

To complement our companion study of critical thinking in introductory psychology textbooks and ancillary workbooks and readers, we describe 12 critical thinking books that instructors could use as supplements in psychology courses. Some books strongly emphasize skills in evaluating arguments, whereas others stress methodology and biases in thinking. Although the breadth and depth of most of these books limit their use in a one-term introductory course, they fit comfortably in a two-term course. We suggest alternative ways to incorporate supplementary critical thinking books into the psychology curriculum.
