This text book has amazing stories and prompts in it. The authors who put this together knew what they were doing and the lesson you can take from the readings are great.

This had been a mandatory book, but even the professor thought that some of the examples weren't good, especially some of the example student essays. The teaching style of the very dense book didn't seem interested in actually teaching its students to think critically but more in memorizing terms and concepts.

Great book. Large variety of up-to-date topics and essays holding opposite opinions.
