Acting on Words: An Integrated Reader, Rhetoric, and Handbook

by David Brundage, Michael Lahey

Acting on Words is a rhetoric that is designed with an interlinked structure and meant to be explored from various angles, giving students the flexibility to begin with readings, writing practice, or grammar review.  The new second edition of this indigenous Canadian text has been reorganized to highlight the expanded rhetoric section, includes an expanded discussion of argumentation, and now features increased Canadian content on topics more relevant to Canadian youth, and more representative samples from younger writers.

I didn't read ALL of it, only the things that I have needed up until now for my lectures and courses. Very interesting take on different ways to write and analyse other people's writing.
