Chapter 7 Rhetorical Precis


In their book “Good Reasons,” Lester Faigley and Jack Selzer assert that one must always find a purpose for writing an argument.  Faigley and Selzer support their claims by providing an example of a car crash cause by a drunk driver.  The author’s purpose was to show the audience the importance of defining the topic in order for the writer to write about complex issues.  The author’s tone is highly knowledgeable, they give several options and allow the reader to see different incidents and writing topics.
