"The first thing I noticed is how current and significant these pieces are. I also like the variety of topics offered, including body image, technology, politics, and race, to name a few. There is nothing listed here that I would not want my students to read and respond to critically." --Heather Braun, University of Akron"I like the diversity of the readings; the mix of classic/foundational and new, ephemerally relevant material; and the balance shown to male and female voices." --Susan Wright, Campbellsville University"I cannot stress enough how much I love the selections in Methods of Argument." --Sarah Cote, Alfred University, "The first thing I noticed is how current and significant these pieces are.

The anthology's selections model an array of critical-thinking and writing techniques, covering both simple single-point and complex multi-point arguments.

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
