The first edition of Thinking in Education made a case for inserting
thinking into all levels of education by infusing critical thinking
into existing disciplines. Matthew Lipman, a leading education
theorist, provided procedures to enable students at all levels of
education to become more thoughtful, more reasonable, and more
judicious. In the 12 years since the first edition was published, the
author has broadened his approach to teaching thinking. While critical
thinking is important and highly valuable, it is not sufficient;
students must develop creative and caring thinking as well. This
edition provides methods for integrating emotive experience, mental
acts, thinking skills and informal fallacies into a concerted approach
to the improvement of reasoning and judgment. It also shows how the
community of inquiry can be utilized for the reduction of violence in
the classroom and for the improvement of the education of children at
risk.
