Just as you use the wrench to fix the sink, so you can use the tools we give you in this book to solve thinking problems.<\/p>\n<p>We wrote this book for children and adults who want to learn logic and critical thinking skills. The Thinking Toolbox follows the same style as The Fallacy Detective with lessons and exercises and an answer key in the back. Parents and teachers, as well as anybody who wants to learn logic, will find The Thinking Toolbox easy to use and practical.<\/p>\n<p>Features<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fun to use \u2013 not dry like a math textbook<\/li>\n<li>Can be used after or before The Fallacy Detective<\/li>\n<li>Introductory \u2013 teaches skills you can use right away<\/li>\n<li>Self-teaching format<\/li>\n<li>For ages twelve and older<\/li>\n<li>Over 60 cartoon illustrations by Richard LaPierre<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The winners of this drawing will receive\u00a0<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">The Thinking Toolbox<\/span>.
