Reviews
A well written and important book, as relevant to the field of professional communication as to the broader field of composition.-- "Technical Communication Quarterly"
Very much like reading Foucault at his clearest and most convincing. This book is written with real authority, and it makes sense in all sorts of ways.-- "James Slevin, Georgetown University"
