About this book
& For courses in Argument and Research. The most thorough theoretical foundation available Writing Arguments: A Rhetoric with Readings 10/e integrates four different approaches to argument: the enthymeme as a logical structure the classical concepts of logos pathos and ethos the Toulmin system and stasis theory. Focusing on argument as dialogue in search of solutions instead of a pro-con debate with winners and losers it is consistently praised for teaching the critical-thinking skills needed for writing arguments. Major assignment chapters each focus on one or two classical stases (e.g. definition resemblance causal evaluation and policy). Each concept is immediately reinforced with discussion prompts and each chapter ends with multiple comprehensive writing assignments. This comprehensive version contains a superlative thematic anthology of arguments on contemporary topics and some classics for balance.
