Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"Evident . . . is a commitment to clear, elegant writing. The human sciences envisioned by these writers will be enlivened by metaphor, irony and story-telling."--Times Higher Educational Supplement "I know of no other work that discusses scientific writing in this way or with this much insight and revelation. It would be especially useful for a college or university course on the topic." --International Journal on the Unity of the Sciences

Reseña del editor:

Opening with an overview of the renewal of interest in rhetoric for inquiries of all kinds, this volume addresses rhetoric in individual disciplines-mathematics, anthropology, psychology, economics, sociology, political science, and history.  Two essays draw from recent literary theory to suggest the contribution of the humanities to the rhetoric of inquiry, and several essays explore communications beyond the academy, particularly in women's issues, religion, and law.  The final essays speak from the field of communication studies, where the study of rhetoric usually makes its home.
