"This brief collection of readings focuses on the way language influences and prejudices society's view on race, gender, age, disabilities, and sexual preferences. Thought-provoking selections ask students to think about timely and relevant issues such as: racial slurs and other offensive language, anti-feminist discourse, and verbal assaults on homosexuals. Divided into seven chapters, each features six or more essays of varying lengths. Brief apparatus helps students write more thoughtfully in response to the selections and to think more critically about the importance of choosing language wisely."--Publisher.

Laughing Matters A Longman Topics Reader written by Marvin Diogenes and has been published by Pearson this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2009 with Humor categories.
Laughing Matters showcases how a range of contemporary writers including Jon Stewart and David Sedaris craft persuasive arguments, using humor to make their case while entertaining the reader. Many cultural commentators note that we live in an age of comedy. Staples of comic rhetoric-irony, sarcasm, and various forms of lampoon and caricature-have become dominant forms of public discourse, readily available through both traditional print forms and the electronic medis that drive public culture. Contemporary comedy helps define public issues and delivers critical perspectives on courses of action, judgments on the morality and effectiveness of policy decisions, and praise and blame for elected leaders. Given this cultural moment, a guide to analyzing how comic arguments are made-and to crafting such arguments using the rhetorical strategies particular to comedy-seems timely.
