Title: Contrastive rhetoric revisited and redefined
Description: "This volume breaks new ground in its examination of contrastive rhetoric in the exclusive context of composition. Editor Clayann Gilliam Panetta has assembled contributors with varying areas of specially to demonstrate how the traditional definition of contrastive rhetoric theory can be applied to composition in new and innovative ways and how it can be redefined through the lens of addressing "difference" issues in writing.

Thus, the volume as a whole clarifies how the basic principles of contractive rhetoric theory can help composition instructors to understand writing and rhetorical decisions.".

"With the inclusion of current research on multicultural issues this collection is appropriate for all instructors in ESL writing, including teachers in rhetoric, composition, and linguistics. It can also be used as an advanced text for students in these areas. Wherever it is employed, it is certain to offer significant new insights into the application of contractive rhetoric within the composition discipline."--BOOK JACKET.
