Accessible in style, while offering thorough and well-organized content and heavyweight ideas. The attention to visual design makes the text interesting and appealing, as well as easy to navigate."---Anthony Baker, Tennessee Technological University"Everything's an Argument is the total package---no other reader is this good a rhetoric and no other argument text is this good a reader." ---Jim Coppoc, Iowa State University"For many years, Everything's an Argument has been my favorite textbook to use for the second-semester composition course. It covers complex concepts in a way that is very accessible for students. The text is up-to-date with contemporary issues." ---Lisa Kirby, North Carolina Wesleyan College"Chapter 1 gets five stars from me; it begins a semester-long conversation about whether everything is, indeed, an argument. I think students have never considered this concept and are challenged by and excited about it." ---Ellen Johnson, Arizona State University"The readings are current and timely, which helps students apply what they are reading to their lives and encourages making connections between what they are reading and what crosses their path outside the classroom walls." ---Kristin Smith, Durham Technical Community College"Controversial at times, very thorough, interesting and has something for everybody's taste and teaching style." ---Sarah Eichelman, Walters State Community College
