Synopsis

The Structure of Argument was the first text based on the accessible Toulmin model — the model of argument that fits best with the methods and goals of college composition. Covering critical thinking, reading, writing, and research, it is concise but thorough, and presents everything students need in an affordable, compact format.

Thorough but not intimidating, The Structure of Argument includes questions, exercises, and writing assignments, and a full semester’s worth of readings. And now the clearest writing and research coverage of any argument textbook has been re-invigorated to make it even more accessible.
