Arguing that informed dissent plays out largely in the realm of rhetoric, he equips readers with strategies for resisting the dehumanizing language used in war propaganda. Through his study of language strategies, he makes it possible to foster a community where dissenting voices are valued and vital."--BOOK JACKET. |
