Redefining composition to include conscious attention to images and design, Picturing Texts is the first writing textbook to show students how to compose visual texts as well as how to read them.
Both reader and rhetoric, it combines 40 readings and more than 200 images with instruction on how to think rhetorically about both words and images. Students who write on computers are able to add visuals to their texts and to design what they write―Picturing Texts will teach them how.
