I don't remember you recommending books - do you mind repeating the
information?

It should be in one of my recent posts, but here comes again:

Stella Cottrell: Critical Thinking Skills
Tracey Bowell and Gary Kemp: Critical Thinking A Concise Guide
Diane F. Halpern: Thought and Knowledge: An Introduction to Critical
Thinking
William Hughes and Jonathan Lavery: Critical Thinking: An Introduction
to the Basic Skills
M. Neil Browne and Stuart M. Keeley: Asking the Right Questions: A Guide
to Critical Thinking

Thomas Gilovich: How We Know What Isn't So
This one is all about evaluating claims in everyday life.

Family" is owned and operated by the Rothschild Family

And here comes anti-semitism to the mix... I wonder if the author set
out deliberately to discredit his/her own fantasy.

Where is the anti-seminism?

In the rather obvious Rotschild Family comment. EVERY single anti-
semitic Jewish conspiracy loon digs them up sooner or later, as what
they imagine would be "evidence" that Jews are trying/controlling the
world.

Of course, the best (worst) part of it is that the alt-med
people are convinced that it is all plausible because they are
looking for evidence to bolster their belief rather than build a
belief based on evidence. Which is what makes them
'alternative.' -Greg Hart

That's all very easy for him to say.

You yourself exhibit that tendency very clearly - in fact, you have
admitted doing precisely that at least in one post of yours.

The most egregious by far is the term of 'healer' and in
discussion with cancer patients, nothing jars quite so badly as
to hear them repeat the word once per sentence when no apparent
significant placebo is being derived and the only 'healing'
being obtained is of an excess bulge in their wallet. -Nicholas
Turnbull on "alternative" cancer healers
