Launch of the book "Debate Like an Expert: Sharp Arguments and Effective Thinking"

Tre Publishing House has just released the book “Debate like an expert: Sharp arguments and effective thinking” by author Lang Minh. The book not only guides readers to the basics of Critical Thinking, but also contains advice to help readers build their own lifestyle.

According to Tre Publishing House, unit books on the topic of critical thinking are welcomed by readers.

However, most of the reference books and practical guides on critical thinking skills on the Vietnamese market today are translated works.

Vietnamese readers need more books on this topic with a system of everyday, vivid examples, closely related to contemporary changes as practical material.

This is also the concern of author Lang Minh during more than a decade of teaching Introduction to Critical Thinking to students at universities and high schools across the country.

This thought prompted him to start collecting debates in contemporary Vietnamese life as materials for his lectures.

This was both the initial idea and the motivation for him to start writing the book "Debate Like an Expert: Sharp Arguments and Effective Thinking".

The book "Debate Like a Pro: Sharp Arguments and Effective Thinking" is divided into six main parts, deeply analyzing the components that make up an argument - the smallest unit of critical thinking including: statement, reasoning and evidence.

This is a book that inspires people's joy of discovering knowledge.

In each chapter, the author not only explains the concept, characteristics of each component or how they relate to each other, but also provides techniques and practical instructions with the aim of helping readers sharpen their arguments and move towards an effective thinking method.

In addition to the five main parts, "Debate Like a Pro" also has an appendix on fallacies in thinking, which will initially point out common fallacies that anyone can easily make.

Commenting on the work,education expert Pham Hiep said that "Reflecting Like an Expert" was designed by author Lang Minh as a set of instructional materials, full of theory but not too academic thanks to a rich and specific system of examples, mainly quoted from "practical" works written by him and his colleagues.

“This is probably the most noteworthy point of this book. In addition to encouraging readers to read this book, I also think this is a very suitable work to be included as a textbook and reference material for undergraduate and postgraduate training programs in communications, journalism, public administration, marketing, etc. in particular, as well as the entire field of social sciences in general,” wrote education expert Pham Hiep.

In addition to teaching, author Lang Minh is also a familiar social commentator in prestigious newspapers in Vietnam.

This has helped Criticism as an expert approach many rather dry knowledge contents of the subject of Critical Thinking in a diverse and attractive way.

Throughout the work, readers will see author Lang Minh constantly switching between three roles: journalist, teacher and sometimes a young man who has devoted a large part of his life to "helping" his difficult neighbor. Each role is cleverly chosen by him to suit the content he wants to convey.

Not only is Critical Thinking like an Expert useful for readers looking for a critical thinking approach that is close to their own life context, the book is also a suitable guide for any reader to embark on learning knowledge from many different fields, building a multidimensional worldview in a constructive spirit.

Furthermore, this is a book that evokes the joy of discovering knowledge with a mindset of respecting multidimensional perspectives and a constructive spirit in a world where it is increasingly difficult for all parties to dialogue with each other.
