This volume explores adult work-world writing issues from the
perspectives of five seasoned professionals who have logged
hundreds of hours working with adults on complicated written
communication problems. It examines the gap between school-world
instructional practices and real-world problems and situations.
After describing the five major economic sectors which are writing
intensive, the text suggests curricular reforms which might better
prepare college-educated writers for these worlds. Because the
volume is based on the extensive work-world experiences of the
authors, it offers numerous examples of real-world writing problems
and strategies which illustrate concretely what goes wrong and what
needs to be done about it.

Why has classical rhetoric been a subject of such growing interest
for the past ten years? Because the most exciting work in classical
rhetoric has asked us to rethink classical concepts in modern
terms. What's been missing, at least in book-length form, is a
scholarly rethinking of rhetorical memory and delivery. As many
scholars have been noting in their work for some time now, three of
five classical issues -- invention, arrangement, and style -- have
dominated rhetorical studies while the other two -- memory and
delivery -- have largely been misunderstood or ignored. Re-examined
in light of recent research on orality, literacy, and electronic
technology, rhetorical memory and delivery issues can become not
only central to the field but also key to the continued interest in
classical rhetoric.
