Now one method of doing that involves passing the document back and forth via email, each person taking the time to make changes, and then passing it back. However, coordinating those efforts can get confusing.
There is a good argument that using word processor attachments via email hinders collaboration. The mechanism isn't conducive to the necessities of a group document, and a great deal of information is lost as people continually pass a document back and forth, get confused about what goes where, and give up on the process. It would also be nice sometimes to jump back in and make in edit, instead of waiting for the document to come back.
