Controversial issues are discussed in this invaluable book. Pros and Cons provides material for debates on a wide range of questions: arguments for and against appear in adjacent columns, numbered point by point, so that each Pro corresponds with the Con of the same number. For this edition, most topics were radically rewritten and new topics added, ranging from Modern Architecture (Has it Lost its Way?) , through the Freedom of Information Act and Marriage as an Institution (Is it an Outmoded Concept?) , to Privatisation and Surrogate Mothers .
