stands above the crowd

This is one of the best anthologies for teaching writing. It includes sections on animal rights and artificial intelligence, among other good topics. The book allows for good debates on interesting, relevant, and controversial current issues in cognitive science. It avoids the usual hackneyed and trite topics of other anthologies.
