Abstract

In Part I we developed mathematical tools for investigating sustainability. The many short examples and exercises provided throughout Part I are there to help build familiarity with these methods. Now it’s time to put them to use within the context of persuasive writing. Our aim is for you to use quantitative information, appropriately and effectively, in your own writing, and also to develop skills in assessing quantitative reasoning when it is used by others.
