CRITICAL THINKING IN WRITTEN COMMUNICATION 4th Edition brings English language learning to a higher level by focusing on the effective and cognitive strategies applied to written communication at the evaluation phase of writing or reading. Instead of discussing general concepts under critical thinking, this book explains the details and mechanics of examining how a writer may shape and reshape his text in order to elicit the desired behavior from the target reader, or how a reader may apply the same evaluation strategies to a given text in order to comprehend its meanings, determine its worth, and act accordingly. Some of the lessons may be unusual. For example, the student writer is advised to ask "How will may reader react if I use a metaphor for the main idea?", even "Which fallacy works in this context?", or the student reader is advised to ask "Why is the author saying these things and what ideas could he have withheld?" Most of the ideas and materials in this book were formulated in English communication workshops cpnducted for the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) through the Foreign service Institute (FSI), other government agencies, and multinationals.
