To non-critical readers, many texts offer the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
To the critical reader, any single text provides but one portrayal of the facts, one individual's "take" on the subject.


Criticalreading.com shows you how to recognize what a text says, what a text does, and what a text means
by analyzing choices of content, language, and structure.
It shows you what to look for, and how to think about what you find.
