Getting Critical

I can see how these little books have been popular. Some of my dyslexic traits make reading and comprehension difficult. I really need to get to grips with critical thinking for my MA. After reading this the first time I have been itching to get stuck in to my studies. I have however, read it from cover to cover before acting on the guides. I have been pleasantly surprised at how much I already do, but I just don't do it in a structured manner. 'Getting Critical' has made me feel positive about my ability and I look forward to implementing the strategies. I also have 'Reflective Writing' and will be reading that later during this semester. I will be ordering more in this series. I think they will probably be more expensive than buying one book to cover a selection of the topics, but feel it is worth it, as they are so nonthreatening and easy to pick up. My only thought (not criticism) would be that I wish they were on Kindle. Then I could carry a whole set around with me. My next 'Pocket Study Skills' book will be 'Studying with Dyslexia', I can't wait.

This is an excellent book for the introduction of Critical Appraisal. This book and its series are written for people with limited time or newcomer for a new subject. I am going to buy all the pocket series. I loved it!

Part of a amazon bundle order for study skills. A nice happy book for guiding the young student on how to get into critical results from what he is reading , a good way to understand and  report in a omniaspect witout getting into emotional traps .   very nice design and nice methodology. simple language and vocabulary 3/5

If you're a student and unsure about your critical analysis, this is a good, brief guide to getting it right. Very helpful without having to wade through pages and pages of text.

Excellent condition
