Thank You for Arguing, Fourth Edition (Revised and Updated): What Aristotle, Lincoln, and Homer Simpson Can Teach Us About the Art of Persuasion Review: Great book for improving speech Skills and etiquette - This book is very well written it reads quickly and fast but it's packed full of details and examples on how to improve your speech and etiquette. I bought this book because I am a competitive debater who wanted to improve my rhetoric skills. This book did help me improve not only my rhetoric skills, but also critical thinking, and speech etiquette. Easily one of the best parts of this book are the examples that use to help prove why rhetoric is important is and why we should use proper rhetoric. Review: Good Persuasive Argument Book - I'd looked for textbooks and used others to help teach my college persuasive writing class and hadn't been able to find something that spoke to the students. Jay Heinrichs' book is a fast read while implementing solid argument inventions into his writing. There are exercises and examples which help with my writing class. This is a really good book on rhetoric that has the fundamentals of rhetoric, calling up the roles of Socrates and Aristotle on language. It also encompasses how to apply these ideas to everyday conversations with family and friends. After reading this book, you will look at everyone, especially talking TV pundits, so differently. If only we all could have a little bit more informed rhetoric inside of us going on, we might not be so polarized as we are now. Truly is a skill for all.

The best 6 dollars spent.
Whoever owned this book before I received it, it's got a lot of writing and highlighted things in it because it did come from a thriftbook store never really saw a book that somebody was really dedicated into taking actual notes in an actual book I'm curious what else I'm going to find in here so this book has a lot of things that most people need to learn.. so get your coffee and get comfortable and read away.
