Story4.5 out of 5 stars 58
Spot-on, often satirical, always insightful, contributing editor of The American Mind and mother of a brood Peachy Keenan argues that the only way we can save our families, ourselves, and the world—even California!—is by embracing our inner domestic extremists, and sweeping failed notions of third wave feminism and identity politics nonsense into the garbage can of history.

The overall sentiment is 100% spot on, but author shamed women struggling with fertility.

No skill is more important in today's world than being able to think about, understand, and act on information in an effective and responsible way. What's more, at no point in human history have we had access to so much information, with such relative ease, as we do in the 21st century. But because misinformation out there has increased as well, critical thinking is more important than ever.

Same Material Different Title
- By rkeinc on 09-21-14
OK parts outweighed by repetitive bad parts
Reviewed: 01-31-15
This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
Those who pull at threads on the fringe of complex topics and issues, and those who like pop jargon; fall for unsubstantiated plausibility structures; chronilogical snobery and overbroad claims.
What was most disappointing about The Great Courses’s story?
Redudictive point of view comes accross as quite smug.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
His narration was the best part.
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Your Deceptive Mind: A Scientific Guide to Critical Thinking Skills?
I guess I would start with the title. If the premis of the course is supported by a bias of strong-materialistic naturalism then there is by definition no such thing as a distinction of the mind (mind and brain are just interchangable terms). He should realize without an animated and self-directed mind there can be no critical thinking in the first place, and QED, Materialistic Naturalism must be a false premis.
