Everything's an Argument With Readings

About this book

Designed to be a true alternative to traditional argument texts Everythings an Argument takes a fresh and friendly approach to the subject by showing students that argument is everywhere. Everythings an Argument with Readings complements this approach with a uniquely broad range of examples -- from essays to billboards to emails to radio programs -- that help students recognize and respond to the arguments all around them. Andrea Lunsford and John Ruszkiewiczs instruction is fresh elegant and jargon-free emphasizing inclusivity (moving beyond simple pro/con positions) humor and visual argument to make Everythings an Argument immediately accessible. Students like this book because it helps them see and understand that a world of argument already surrounds them; instructors like it because it helps students construct their own arguments about that world.
