"This is one of the most student-friendly texts on argument. The
arrangement of chapters, focus on specific writing projects and the
discussion of the nuts and bolts of drafting an argument paper
responds to the way students ask their questions."
"I think the writing and workshop activities are well crafted. The
questions posed to students in the exercises sound like questions I
might ask in class."
"Every time I get a review copy of a new composition text in the
mail, I find myself comparing it to INVENTING ARGUMENTS. They all
come up short. Inventing Arguments has everything I need in one
book."
