Original Question
Thanks, Bo, for answering my previous question! The information you provided intensified my desire to learn more!
As I stated before, I am a registered nurse. I have been in the medical field for 20 years. I am 42. No kids. Happily divorced. The first paragraph in the preface of Logically Fallacious spoke to me. I find myself wanting to uncover the world of truth! I am fascinated with fallacies of logic, with argument analysis and critical thinking. Thanks, Bo! I am addicted now, thanks to you, and thanks to your book, which I happened across by accident :)
I want to learn. I cannot start with the advanced concepts presented in your book, and others I've come across. I need to build a foundation.
I work three days a week as an RN. I have the hours a day I can dedicate to learning this craft, but I need to know where to start. Can you kindly recommend a few of your favorite resources (textbooks, etc.,) I can use to build my foundation, much like you did when you became interested in argument/reasoning/logic?

1Hi Chad! I would suggest an introductory course on critical thinking from my friend Dr. Kevin DeLaplante: http://www.criticalthinkeracademy.com/. He has a paid course, but his videos are free on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/user/PhilosophyFreak) and he has a great podcast on iTunes.
