内容简介：
This text focuses on developing effective arguments within particular discourse communities-acknowledging that community contexts affect factors such as a writer's motivation and strategy. The second edition of Arguing in Communities provides new and expanded coverage, an abundance of new readings, and a full complement of exercises, many of them designed for collaborative work. The book has three parts: "Arguing and Living in Communities," "Types of Claims"; and "Continuing the Conversation: An Anthology of Arguments."
