Despite explicit warnings from the U.S. Surgeon General about the harmful affects of smoking, for decades people have chosen to start smoking cigarettes. Selections examine the effects of smoking as well as factors that influence people's decisions to smoke. In addition, a variety of guided exercises, sidebar questions, and model essays assist students through the process of writing their own well-supported compositions.

The sexual revolution is often defined as the transformation of sexual attitudes and mores that began with the advent of the birth control pill in the 1960s. However, the trend toward more liberal sexual values actually began in 1918 and became prevalent in the latter twentieth century. This anthology traces the sexual revolution from its nineteenth-century "free love" harbingers.
