Pros and Cons : A Debaters Handbook, Seventeenth Edition free download online
Title: Pros and Cons : A Debaters Handbook, Seventeenth Edition Author(s): Michael D. Jacobson Pages: 288 Publisher: Routledge Publication date: 1992 Language: English Format: PDF ISBN-10: 041508461X ISBN-13: Description: The object of Pros & Cons is to give debaters a useful guide to
for-and-against arguments on a wide range of controversial
issues. It not only provides up-to-date material on the standard
subjects long familiar to debating societies but also covers many
newly urgent topics - to the extent, it is hoped, that anyone
reading right through the book would emerge with a fair idea
of the contemporary climate of society and most of the principal
political, social, industrial, educational and moral questions of
the day.
All the opposing arguments, numbered successively, appear
in adjacent columns, so that (as far as possible) each Pro corresponds
with the relevant Con. For the sake of convenience, the
debating subjects are arranged in alphabetical order, even
though this may sometimes result in a separation of subjects
which logically ought to go together. Attention is always drawn,
however, to any themes related to each other, through crossreferences
both in the text and in the Index. The opinions and
factual details in the debates could not possibly be comprehensive
but are intended, rather, as guidelines which the debater
could develop or which might suggest other points worth
exploration.
