For Freshman Composition Courses and Argumentative Writing Courses. Nancy Wood's Perspectives on Argument offers the most complete coverage of the research paper available in an argument writing text. This argument book explains argument theory clearly and applies it to written, visual, and oral argument. It presents complete instructions on how to write a research paper that makes an argument. It encourages students to find multiple perspectives on issues before they decide on their own perspective, and it provides strategies for finding common ground. A classroom-tested assignment sequence allows students to progress from easy to more difficult writing tasks and to integrate classroom reading, thinking, and writing at every stage as they complete them. Also, the readings provide thought-provoking essays that help students form their own opinions about modern issues.

Readable but Ultimately Forgettable

Think students shouldn't review textbooks? Why not? They're the ones who have to read them.

This book is surprisingly readable given the potential for boredom in a subject like argument. Unfortunately, there is a tendency towards memorizing new vocabulary without much in the way of applying the concepts.

The essays in the book, intended as examples, vary widely in quality. This would be okay, if the intention were to show examples of quality as opposed to examples of ARGUMENT.

I voluntarily used this book once, to brainstorm for an essay in another class. That's the only reason I didn't rate it lower.
