SynopsisEasy to use, flexible, and a great value. With just enough detail -- and color-coded links that send students to more detail if they need it -- this is the rhetoric that tells students what they need to know and resists the temptation to tell them everything there is to know. The first rhetoric designed for easy reference -- with menus, directories, and a glossary/index that make it easy to use. The Norton Field Guide to Writing with Readings and Handbook includes an anthology of 60 readings -- 29 new to the second edition. Color-coded links offer teachers the flexibility of centering their classes on the rhetoric or the readings. And the handbook is in back, helping students edit what they write., The most successful new rhetoric in a generation, with a reader and a handbook everything students need, in one book.", The most successful new rhetoric in a generation, with a reader and a handbook--everything students need, in one book., The Norton Field Guide to Writing with Readings and Handbook includes an anthology of 60 readings -- 29 new to the second edition.
