"In The Rhetoric of RHETORIC Wayne C. Booth passionately and persuasively demonstrates the centrality of rhetoric to human inquiry and human interaction. Taking Booth's manifesto seriously -- responding to it in the spirit of what he calls 'listening rhetoric' -- can improve the quality of our thought, our interactions, and, thus, our lives."
