Updated examples, streamlined text, and the chapter on definition reworked in a rule-based format strengthen this already strong volume. Readers familiar with the previous edition will find a text that retains all the features that make Rulebook ideally suited for use as a supplementary course book-including its modest price and compact size.
Unlike
most textbooks on argumentative writing, Rulebook is organized around
specific rules, illustrated and explained soundly and briefly. It is
not a textbook, but a rulebook, whose goal is to help students get on
with writing a paper or assessing an argument. (Amazon.Com)
