In giving instruction in this book on how to teach students to think, "this book is an exception. Its authors have dealt directly and effectively with the paramount responsibility of the teacher in a free society: the development of citizens who are committed to and skilled in the the process of thinking---independently and reflectively ... It [the book] is designed to help them move progressively, first, to a recognition that the method of thinking, of reflective activity, is the method of learning; second, to an enhanced understanding and control of the techniques which make possible the creation of situations that challenge individuals to think; and third, to the attitude which values the act of inquiry as the most precious possession of those who attain freedom."--Taken from editor's introduction and preface.
