| Abstract

:
|
"Pros and Cons: A Debater's Handbook offers a unique guide to current controversies, providing material for debate on a wide range of topics." "Arguments for and against each subject appear in adjacent columns for easy comparison, and related topics and suggestions for possible motions are listed at the end of each entry. This eighteenth edition includes new issues such as censorship of the Internet, genetic engineering and the legalisation of prostitution." "The introductory essay describes debating technique, covering the rules, structure and types of debate, and offering tips on how to become a successful speaker."--Jacket
