Reviews for Reasonableness and Effectiveness in Argumentative Discourse: Fifty Contributions to the Development of Pragma-Dialectics
The book under review ... is the first publication to allow us a glimpse into the workshop of pragma-dialectics in its full glory. ... there is no place like this book for academics and practitioners to appreciate the enormous richness of the pragmadialectical research program in all its different phases and facets.
