Description
Pearson Controversy Issues For Reading And Writing 1998 Edition by Judith J. Pula, Audrey T. Edwards
For courses in Developmental Writing and Freshman Composition. This innovative reader helps students develop a strong cognitive approach to critical reading and writing by challenging them to express their own ideas on controversial issues and to respond to those of others on the same issues. It features opposing, accessible readings on fifteen current topics - with questions to stimulate application of prior knowledge, critical response, and persuasive writing - and with a focus on developing an active, questioning, skeptical approach toward ideas in print.
