It draws on the authors' varied expertise in critical thinking, effective persuasive writing, and comprehensive rhetorical strategies to help students move from critical thinking to argumentative and research writing. This extraordinarily versatile text includes comprehensive coverage of classic and contemporary approaches to argument, from Aristotelian to Toulmin, as well as 48 readings, including a casebook on the state and the individual. This affordable guide can stand alone or supplement a larger anthology of readings."--Publisher's website.
