• More emphasis on student work in 4 new student arguments (6 in all): Student essays provide examples of the kinds of paper students are often assigned—rhetorical analysis (new), visual analysis, definition (new), evaluation (new), proposal (new), and a documented research paper.

o        The visual analysis chapter has been revised to include a lengthy analysis of an ad.

• A more visual approach: Responding to the need for greater visual literacy in a media-saturated culture, Good Reasons with Contemporary Arguments 4/e offers the following:

o        New feature--Finding Good Reasons: These full-page writing prompts (one per chapter in Parts 1 and 3) integrate reading, visuals, and writing. Each describes a current issue (such as surveillance technologies and policies, health and obesity, community activism), features a related visual, and provides questions designed to get students thinking and writing about issues.

o        New visual maps to the kinds of arguments: Full-color diagrams in chs. 8-13 provide visual maps to the structure of each kind of argument covered in part 3.  

o        New discussion of analyzing visuals in arguments: Ch. 6, a full chapter on visual analysis, includes a new and detailed analysis of an ad. 

o        Chapter-opening photographs with question-style captions and over 150 color illustrations throughout to get students thinking about the persuasiveness of visuals.

• Redesigned MLA and APA sample entries: Updated and color-coded sample entries help students recognize and organize key elements of source citations.

• Fresh readings in Part 6, “Contemporary Arguments”:
• 72 readings in part 6, over half new, join 11 readings in the rhetoric to engage students in the many perspectives on the issues of the day: the income gap, climate change, clean energy, immigration, robots, the tension between privacy and security, disabilities, eating disorders, diversity, and online identities and lifestyles.

• More than 75 visuals, nearly all new, include cartoons, ads, graphs, charts, maps, and photographs illustrate and provide new perspectives on the topic of the chapter.

• Two new Issues in Focus sections (5 total in Part 6) gather readings, cartoons, and other visuals on the issues of climate change (in Ch. 22, “Negotiating the Environment”) and on biometric technologies (in Ch. 26, “Privacy”).
