Beskrivning

The significance of Think, Read, Write: A Guide to Critical Thinking, Reading, and Writing lies in the ordering of the words: think, read, write. You can't do the last one without doing the first two. Using the cover picture as a metaphor, thinking is the soil, reading is the seed, and writing is the plant that grows from these things.
