Updated on 3/28/26: An editor at the Foundation for Critical Thinking Press reviewed Chapter 1 and made 30 comments on it.  I agreed with about 90% of the comments and made appropriate additions or revisions to improve this Chapter. The changes are in blue font.

Updated on 1/7/26: text is now single-spaced, block-quotes run to the right margin, and bullet lists start at the left margin, reducing the number of pages from 42 pages to 33 pages.
