Rhetorical Figures in Science

Rhetorical Figures in Science breaks new ground in the rhetorical study of scientific argument as the first book to demonstrate how figures of speech other than metaphor have been used to accomplish key conceptual moves in scientific texts. Examples, both verbal and visual, range across
disciplines and centuries to reaffirm the positive value of these once widely-taught devices.
