Table of ContentsReviewsThe discussion of the differences between force and power has wide-ranging implications not only for discourse theory and rhetoric, but for understanding the concept of 'power' in thinkers like Nietzsche, Foucault, and even Freud and Lacan. It is a significant contribution to the study of rhetoric and to other fields as well. Ronald Schleifer, author of Rhetoric and Death: The Language of Modernism and Postmodern Discourse Theory and coeditor of Contemporary Literary Criticism After Rhetoric deserves to be read by a very large audience. The book not only adds to our understanding of discourse studies; it also contributes significantly to our understanding of language, communication, interpretation, and epistemology. --Symploke [ After Rhetoric is] a book the field of rhetoric and composition should take very seriously . . . [and]a courageous attempt to challenge directly a number of central beliefs in the field today. --JAC Author InformationStephen R. Yarbrough is an associate professor and director of graduate studies in English at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, USA.
