All the essays in this [book are] worth the effort involved in reading them critically. Even if one disagrees with the writer's approach, in each chapter the reader will find insights into the problem of our relation to language. This work of frequent brilliance and occasional blemish certainly belongs in the library of every rhetorical scholar. - Quarterly Journal of Speech
