Table Of ContentSeven new readings, including briefer, more accessible selections, offer more flexibility for teaching. A third of the readings in the eleventh edition are under 20 pages each, including new, accessible selections from writers such as Ta-nehisi Coates, Gloria Bird, Joy Castro, and Ben Lerner. This balance makes it easier to structure the course with a mix of longer, more challenging readings from writers like Michel Foucault, Susan Griffin, and Kwame Anthony Appiah. More science writing lets students work with perspectives from a wider variety of academic disciplines. New readings include "Slow Ideas" by Atul Gawande, which explores the spread of innovations in public health; "The Gene Hackers" by Michael Specter, about research on gene therapies; and a selection from Michael Pollan's In Defense of Food. Updated assignment sequences support learning through Ways of Reading's innovative pedagogy. A new sequence, "The Art of Argument," gets students to consider arguments in visual media--through works by Alison Bechdel, Edward Said, and Susan Bordo--as well as arguments in narrative and journalistic writing by writers like Joy Castro, Atul Gawande, and Michael Specter. Seven other assignment sequences in the book and six additional sequences in the instructor's manual have been updated with new readings and assignments.
SynopsisBecome a more critical thinker and a stronger writer as Ways of Reading challenges you to reread complex texts, clearly write about them, and makeconnections with other texts.
