Description
This book is based on two main ideas: first, seeing how global issues touch us and how our decisions as consumers and voters have far-reaching consequences is very important in today's world, and second, studying the public arguments on these issues in the writing classroom has great value. Unlike multicultural texts that have for years featured readings about the world, this text is an argument reader that introduces students to global controversies and their local connections. It helps students think their way through these issues and enter into them in their writing. - from Amzon
