Síla rozumu v bláznivé době - Manuál kritického myšlení – Markoš Ján (2022)

How to uncover disinformation? How to defend against argumentative fallacies? How do marketing specialists exploit the evolutionary imperfections of the human mind? And how to discuss on the internet so that it makes sense? How to understand the thinking and behavior of people who think differently than I do? And what can each of us do to make our country a better place to live? The Power of Reason in Crazy Times is not only a clearly written answer to these and many other questions but also a dense summary of ideas and strategies on how to use critical thinking in everyday life. Using specific examples from the media and social networks, it guides readers through all the pitfalls they face when trying to form their own opinions. The explanation, delivered with extraordinary pedagogical skill, aims for a clear summary of each topic that is readily available whenever needed. In Slovakia, the book, which quickly became a bestseller after its release, is also widely used by teachers in primary and secondary schools. Given the broad scope and the author's ability to put things into context, it will not disappoint even more informed readers.
