Description
For courses in all disciplines that use decision-making strategies to explore controversial issues. This hands-on workbook helps students develop conceptual tools and argumentative strategies to move beyond merely having opinions to discovering and evaluating the information, values, and assumptions that underlie different positions on controversial issues and cases. Moves students from contentious debates to productive dialogues, and how to increase a group's resources so they can make better decisions.
Reviews / Votes
"As a supplemental text, its content is superb! The text's emphasis on dialogue rather than debate ...is needed. Other texts do not contain this information. The students found the content of the text extremely helpful in getting to the 'heart' of issues as well as helping them to articulate their analysis more effectively." - Joy Benson, University of Illinois at SpringfieldMore details
