Thinking & Living Skills: General Semantics for Critical Thinking

Thinking and Living Skills: General Semantics for Critical Thinking

Edited by Gregory Sawin

Introduction by Alvin Toffler

This illustrated anthology contains 37 lively and thought-provoking short articles by the world’s outstanding general semantics teachers and practitioners. A must-read book for high school and college students, teachers of critical thinking, communication, English, psychology, and journalism, not to mention parents and grandparents.

This new collection of articles, chiefly from recent years of ETC, has a central compelling quality. Greg Sawin, by his selection and ordering of articles, by his own excellent contributions scattered throughout, by the delightful drawings, gives readers a clear sense of the usefulness of general semantics in everyday life. Readers will find here, also, how this usefulness is matched by inspiring historical ideas.
