16 new teachable and engaging selections include:New argument essays that model strategies of persuasive writing, including Verlyn Klinkenborg's “Our Vanishing Night,” Bill McKibben's “Curbing Nature's Paparazzi,” and Alice Walker's “In Search of Our Mothers' Gardens.”New selections on contemporary topics that engage students such as media and popular culture (including Steven Johnson's “Games” and Eric Schlosser's “Kid Kustomers”) and nature and the environment (including Rachel Carson's “The Obligation to Endure” and Michael Pollan's “What's Eating America.”)A new student paper models academic writing. The paper is annotated to demonstrate how the student works with and synthesizes multiple sources and develops and supports a thesis. More help for students for making critical connections. Each selection is followed by questions that make connections to other selections, and an expanded alternative table of contents highlights essay pairs and trios that will stimulate comparative critical thinking and writing.
