Arguing Well Exercises BibliographyReviewsGilbert's Arguing with People interjects the person-centeredness of argumentation studies into the rigor of critical thinking projects. Gilbert is both a philosopher and a novelist, and this book displays both precision and intuitive insight. --Dale Hample, University of Maryland Comments: “ … may be the single most important supplement to [a Critical Reasoning textbook] that an instructor could assign to her students. … Arguing with People is a pleasure to read. It is informative, intellectually stimulating, and will provoke reflection on the many different facets of how and why we argue with others.” — Benjamin Hamby, Coastal Carolina University, in Cogency “Arguing with People invites its readers to reflect on the varied purposes of argumentation, while at the same time calling for reflection upon the manifold physical, social, emotional, and spiritual resources that are drawn into the journey from disagreement to the meeting of the minds.” — G. Thomas Goodnight, Professor at the Annenberg School of Communication & Journalism, University of Southern California “This book represents a valuable pedagogical resource for general education and critical thinking courses. It should also be of considerable help in all university courses where argumentation is central.” — Claudio Duran, York University “Arguing with People makes good reading. It is a practical introduction to the background that Argumentation Theory provides to Critical Thinking. Written in a highly accessible style, it gives a clear overview of various relevant insights. In addition, a series of useful exercises aimed at improving argument skills is included. This combination makes Michael A. Gilbert’s book unique in its kind.” — Frans H. van Eemeren, University of Amsterdam & Leiden University “Gilbert’s Arguing with People interjects the person-centeredness of argumentation studies into the rigor of critical thinking projects. Gilbert is both a philosopher and a novelist, and this book displays both precision and intuitive insight.” — Dale Hample, University of Maryland Author InformationMichael A.
