JF - Revista de Lenguas para Fines Específicos JA - RLFE VL - 28 IS - 1 SE - Reseñas/Book reviews DO - UR - https://ojsspdc.ulpgc.es/ojs/index.php/LFE/article/view/1486 SP - 267-271 AB - <p>The study of how critical thinking is expressed through written texts has been addressed by a diversity of scholars (such as Del Lungo Camiciotti &amp; Tognini-Bonelli, 2004; Hunston &amp; Thompson, 2000; Hyland &amp; Diani, 2009; Salager-Meyer &amp; Lewin, 2011). Drawing from prior studies, this book proposes a new theory for the manual analysis of the expression of critical thinking that identifies and categorises the genre-specific elements used by experienced writers to enact criticality. The book analyses how criticality is constructed in five different genres with the purpose of obtaining results that serve as a basis for providing pedagogical advice to the area of teaching writing and broadening the knowledge of the expression of critical thinking.</p> ER -
