The new edition of Critical Thinking Skills for Healthcare is the ideal text to foster this key attribute, supporting students to critically evaluate information and evidence on their journey from healthcare student to healthcare practitioner.
Including worked examples throughout, the book encourages readers to recognise that they already think critically in their everyday lives. The next step is to integrate this quality into how they approach their studies, from the resources they select to complete assignments to building a cohesive written argument. In an age of social media, misinformation and generative artificial intelligence (GenAI), the need to think critically is even more important in the healthcare professions. In this context, the book provides an invaluable guide to spotting the flaws in an argument or position, as well as weighing up the strengths and weaknesses of different perspectives.
Concise and user‑friendly, this is the perfect textbook for students across the healthcare disciplines, including nursing, midwifery and allied health, as well as those returning to practice after a period away.
