Using Minds to Command the Logic of Things: A Response to Case and Wright.

Paul, Richard

Canadian Social Studies, v32 n1 p20-21 Fall 1997

Reviews some of the basic tenets of critical thinking as it applies to social studies, especially those articulated in Roland Case's and Ian Wright's article, "Taking Seriously the Teaching of Critical Thinking." Praises the article but suggests that it would be improved by tightening the central focus. (MJP)
