Description
This book emphasizes the rhetorical patterns as strategies to help writers achieve their purposes for writing – as means rather than ends. The text focuses on how writers combine patterns and treats argumentation-persuasion in depth. – Many of the new readings are on contemporary issues and by contemporary authors. – A short story or poem has been added to each of the chapters. – Each chapter of readings now begins and ends with a visual and a writing activity. These provocative images get students thinking and writing, and act as prompts for writing an essay.
