"An engaging book that expands the analysis of popular culture and the uses of rhetoric as a methodological tool. In so doing, Root provides readers with an excellent introduction to both fields. Following a brief theoretical introduction, Root applies rhetorical analysis to the fields of advertising, advocacy, and entertainment. Within each of these areas, the reader is presented with a variety of examples that focus on the written, verbal, and visual aspects of rhetoric.... [The] book is an excellent introduction for students in a number of different disciplines, including English, communications, and sociology. Each of the nine substantive chapters is accompanied by a study guide that suggests ways to conduct a rhetorical analysis in that area. Root's writing style is lucid and the text is well organized.
