It provides students with multi-genre reading experiences designed to immerse them in critical and creative thinking as they address problems and issues from multiple perspectives. A new Chapter 3, Talking Voice and Writing Argument, addresses the challenges of finding one s voice in academic writing. Global Perspectives Research and Writing Topics now appear at the end of the four literature chapters, to offer a broader context for approaching literary works.
