This book, which aims to teach students how to be engaged citizens, emphasizes debate, deliberation, and persuasion on public contexts, while also stressing their artistic elements. Students using this book will learn the techniques of public advocacy and the value of public deliberation, understanding both as social action, within a context of ethical communication. It is the kind of book our political times require.
