Relating Persuasion to Everyday Life

 

Persuasion in Your Life speaks directly to the student by focusing on actual life experiences–from critically viewing persuasive public campaigns to making business and health care decisions.  The book reflects a balance of theory and application and draws material from communication, psychology, and other disciplines.  By combining the rhetorical/critical and social scientist research on persuasion with applications to students’ everyday lives, the book helps readers understand, analyze, and use persuasion in their life and career.
