The Humble Argument: A Readable Introduction to Argument and the College Essay

By Roy K. Humble

Book Overview

Avoiding the technical jargon for which English professors are known and admired, this down-to-earth textbook:

Introduces the college essay and explains how it differs from the report, reflection paper, persuasive paper, and five-paragraph trainer-essay. Guides students through the process of researching and developing thoughtful arguments of their own. Shows students how to present their arguments within the confines of effective college writing. Warns students repeatedly about the dangers of not thinking for themselves.

The Humble Argument presents argumentative writing in everyday language so that non-majors are more likely to understand these ideas and put them to good use.
