Customer Reviews

Great condition!

I was quite impressed with the condition that the book came in! Only problem was that it took a lil longer than expected to arrive, which caused me to get a lil behind, but I was just so impressed with the unexpected great condition it was in!

Rhetorical theory

This book was tremendously helpful in establishing the history and current thought about rhetoric. The only complaint was that the feminist rhetoric section was grossly underrepresented. Excellent for ancient as well as modern studies.
