Written to be accessible to middle school and novice debaters, Mastering the Fundamentals of Lincoln-Douglas Debate is nevertheless useful to the varsity-level high school debater who longs for consistent success at tournaments. Myers walks the reader through his innovative Grammatical Resolution Analysis Method (GRAM), which takes much of the effort and guesswork out of writing cases. He especially focuses on resolution-relevant values and criteria, providing detailed explanation of how to create a solid criterion where most LD manuals only provide vague information.Myers's instruction goes beyond case writing, providing useful guidance on successful cross-examination, rebuttal preparation, when and how to use prep time effectively, flowing rounds, effective presentation, and much more. Myers also includes a chapter with quick references of the most commonly used philosophers, and suggests alternative sources to traditional philosophers to help you stand out in a round. Mastering the Fundamentals of Lincoln-Douglas Debate is the one-stop resource to help the new debater advance quickly and painlessly from clueless to competition-ready.
