This book represents a flowering of many years of Bruces published work in the area. His theoretical analysis of how different genres actualize critical thinking will serve as an important resource to educators seeking to help their learners to understand the often-unspoken rules of their respective academic communities. * Gregory Hadley, Professor of Sociolinguistics and Western Cultural Studies, Niigata University, Japan * Critical thinking is widely vaunted as a must-have attribute in education and the modern workplace. What it means, though, is nebulous. Anyone wanting to know what critical thinking actually looks like in writing should read this book. Ian Bruce brings his own take on genre analysis to bear on diverse texts to show its more complex than many might believe. By revealing key features of critical thinking, this book should be of real value to scholars and educators wishing to demonstrate or teach this essential skill. * Karl Maton, Professor and Director of the LCT Centre for Knowledge-Building, University of Sydney, Australia *
