(What Is the Argument? Critical Thinking in the Real World...)
What Is the Argument? Critical Thinking in the Real World is a clear, thoughtful text that solves a wide array of teaching problems unique to the critical thinking course. As the subtitle states, Lee introduces students to the kind of arguments they encounter outside the classroom, and develops a distinctive and effective set of methods by which they can identify and evaluate arguments. More than most texts, What Is the Argument presents an interesting, integrated, skill-building approach that satisfies students and teachers alike.

This interdisciplinary book examines the evolving nuclear predicament and considers particular strategies to cope with and shape the nuclear future. This book reflects the changes brought to nuclear issues by the end of the cold war. The Nuclear Predicament focuses on four main themes, allowing students to understand new nuclear situations—militarily, politically, socially, and ethically— as they arise. Appropriate for anyone with an interest in Nuclear Issues, American Foreign Policy, International Relations, Global Issues, and Contemporary History.

With the passing of the Cold War, a chapter in the history of nuclear deterrence has come to an end. Nuclear weapons remain, however, and nuclear deterrence will again be practiced. Rather than simply assume that the policy of deterrence has worked we need to learn the proper lessons from history in order to ensure that its mistakes are not repeated. Professor Lee furnishes us with the kind of analysis that will enable us to learn those lessons. This book is the first post Cold War assessment of nuclear deterrence. It provides a comprehensive normative understanding of nuclear deterrence policy, examining both its ethical and strategic dimensions. The book poses the question: What kind of nuclear policy, if any, deserves both moral and prudential endorsement?
