A Primer on Critical Thinking and Business Ethics: Recent Conceptualizations of Critical Thinking (Volume 1) encapsulates new developments in Critical Thinking skills for MBA students, in the form of a broad-based cross disciplinary primer in business management, with a special focus on business ethics. Each volume encourages critical thinking as a higher order type of thinking that can be taught, leading to a life of rationality, ethics and empathy, which is urgently required of leaders in a global environment where fraud and corruption are rife.
Volume 1 explores a working definition of Critical Thinking for this Book; gives the domain, scope and paradigms of Critical Thinking; presents key theories, traditions, schools, models and strategies of Critical Thinking; outlines systems thinking through the lens of Critical Thinking; and, details Critical Thinking for Understanding Basic Fallibility & Falsifiability of Human Thinking. It is essential reading for all MBA students, as well as for researchers and practitioners.
A must-read for anyone interested in developing graduate-level critical thinking skills and teaching future corporate leaders how to take a more nuanced perspective on the paradigm-shifting challenges they are likely to face when transitioning into their managerial career.

Domberger Chair in Organization and Management, Coller School of Management, Tel Aviv University (Vice President, Academy of Management)Organizational leaders continually tell us that what they need most are employees that know how to think and learn... Including these monographs on critical thinking in the MBA curriculum will go a long way to providing this essential need for the market.
