Description

The first text designed specifically to introduce debate to new English language speakers. Written in clear, easily accessible prose, it presents the basics of debate while avoiding the complexity and excessive cultural references that make standard texts difficult for this audience to use. Each chapter includes a list of the important concepts and key vocabulary terms as well as exercises that will help students master the skill discussed. All definitions are listed in a glossary.
