Description:

In this in-depth work, Richards defines rhetoric as the study ofmisunderstanding and its remedies. Focusing on how words work in discourse, heexamines the interaction of words with each other and with their contexts,demonstrating how a continual synthesis of meaning--or "principle ofmetaphor"--gives life to discussion. He also argues that we can better controland animate our use of words, and therefore decrease misunderstanding, bycomprehending the way meaning changes in discourse.
