The ability to argue is necessary if people are to solve problems, resolve conflicts, and evaluate alternative courses of action. While many are taught that arguing is counterproductive and arguments should be avoided, Hollihan and Baaske illustrate that arguing is an essential and fundamental human activity. Learning the art of effective argumentation entails a grasp of not only the strategies and principles of analysis and logical reasoning but also the importance of arguing in a positive and socially constructive fashion.

Review
"I enjoyed the text very much. My students found the material accessible and appreciated its affordability." --Mary Husain, California State University, Fresno
"The best and most teachable argumentation text I have read in years. Bless the authors for a text that focuses on argumentative concepts and not contest debating. Most of my students are pre-law or public relations and political communications majors, so this text will serve them well." --Don J. Stanton, Southwest Missouri State University
