Reseña del editor

Short readings, plentiful visuals, careful instruction, and extensive activities make this argument rhetoric and reader appealing and accessible to all students. Drawing on their extensive teaching experience in both two-year and four-year institutions, Muller and Wiener carefully and clearly guide students through the essentials of reading, writing, and researching arguments. The short readings in To the Point are arranged for maximum flexibility and teachability: multiple perspectives on a single topic; patterns in argument; pro/con pairs in debate on many contemporary issues; clusters on critical issues; five classic arguments; and a unique casebook on Americans' eating habits.
