To succeed in any assessment, you need to demonstrate critical thinking – but what does it mean to be ‘critical’?

This book takes a hands-on approach to helping you think, read and write critically. Packed with examples from different disciplines and subjects, it talks through dozens of written extracts so you can see what criticality actually looks like.

The book:

· Equips you with tools for making an argument, explaining your reasoning and using examples to illustrate your points.

· Enables you to structure coherent arguments and choose appropriate language.

· Helps you interpret and apply feedback from your lecturers.

For undergraduate students studying in any discipline, this clear guide takes the confusion out of reading and writing critically so you can approach your assessments with confidence.
