Rhetorical Knowledge in Legal Practice and Critical Legal Theory is an important resource for any serious student of rhetoric and law. And it is a significant step in overcoming the modem law's 'deeply ironic resistance to rhetoric.' --Argumentation and Advocacy Rejecting the unfulfilled ideals of certainty, singular truths, and perspicuous clarity in legal discourse, Mootz offers a provocative and well-grounded consideration of the way that law and legal practice simultaneously create and are grounded in rhetorical knowledge. The book reveals the dynamic character of law's rhetorical knowledge and, at the same time, insists on the possibility of reason and rationality. --William Lewis, Drake University
