Book Synopsis



Basado en el reconocido curso de la Universidad de California en Berkeley, Pensamiento crítico para el tercer milenio es un manual para desarrollar el pensamiento crítico, tomar mejores decisiones y resolver problemas --individuales y colectivos-- en la era de la saturación informativa.


En la actual avalancha de información resulta cada vez más difícil identificar qué es realmente significativo. ¿Qué decisión debemos tomar cuando recibimos consejos médicos contradictorios? ¿Podemos confiar en que las citas que leemos demuestran lo que afirman los autores? ¿Cómo podemos afrontar aquellas conversaciones con nuestros seres queridos cuyos referentes en materia de cambio climático son completamente distintos?


En Pensamiento crítico para el tercer milenio, un físico, un psicólogo y un filósofo nos presentan las herramientas y los marcos conceptuales que han desarrollado los científicos para no dejarse llevar por el engaño, para comprender el mundo y para tomar las mejores decisiones. Todos podemos adoptar estas técnicas y espolear nuestra confianza a la hora de abordar cualquier tipo de problema, sea grande o pequeño.


Así, aprenderemos a:



  • comprender los hechos del mundo moderno

  • trazar un rumbo a través de una profusión de posibilidades

  • trabajar colectivamente para afrontar los retos actuales

  • y mucho más


Mediante estimulantes ejercicios mentales, un lenguaje desprovisto de tecnicismos y una serie de ejemplos vívidos extraídos de la historia, la vida cotidiana y las anécdotas del mundo científico, Pensamiento crítico para el tercer milenio ofrece un enfoque novedoso para que podamos dar sentido al sinsentido.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Based on the acclaimed course from the University of California, Berkeley, Critical Thinking for the Third Millennium is a guide to developing critical thinking, making better decisions, and solving both individual and collective problems in the age of information overload.


In today's flood of information, it's increasingly difficult to identify what truly matters. What should we do when we receive conflicting medical advice? Can we trust that the quotes we read actually support what the authors claim? How do we navigate conversations with loved ones whose views on climate change are completely different from ours?


In Critical Thinking for the Third Millennium, a physicist, a psychologist, and a philosopher present the tools and conceptual frameworks scientists use to avoid deception, understand the world, and make sound decisions. These techniques are accessible to everyone and can boost our confidence when tackling any kind of challenge, big or small.


Through this book, you'll learn to:



  • understand the facts of the modern world

  • chart a course through a sea of possibilities

  • collaborate to face today's challenges

  • and much more


With engaging mental exercises, jargon-free language, and a series of vivid examples drawn from history, everyday life, and scientific anecdotes, Critical Thinking for the Third Millennium offers a fresh approach to making sense of the senseless.
