For and Against is an innovative two-book series that has been carefully designed to develop reading, listening and discussion skills. Fifteen interesting discussion topics are presented from both sides of the issue. Students learn how to understand both sides of the issue and identify key points. Students are also encouraged to consider their position and develop skills to discuss each issue. Realistic listening dialogues and a focus on useful language help students learn how to express their opinions clearly and confidently. Topics include the Internet, international marriage, gambling, examinations and cloning.
