Asking the Right Questions

Asking the Right Questions: A Guide to Critical Thinking, 12th Edition, provides students with a structured framework for argument analysis. Written by M. Neil Browne and Stuart Keeley, this textbook guides readers through core elements of persuasive communication by isolating specific issues, identifying explicit conclusions, and evaluating supporting reasons.

The coverage centers on dissecting how authors construct claims, examining ambiguous language, and uncovering underlying assumptions. By working through these analytical steps, students learn to recognize fallacies, manipulative rhetoric, and faulty reasoning in everyday assertions.

This edition incorporates an enhanced visual program to clarify analytical concepts. Published by Pearson, the volume offers a practical resource for students seeking to build structured questioning habits across academic settings.
