• Resumen

  • Rhetoric, and the field of Communication generally, are much given to self‐reflection, a tendency lamented by some and embraced by others. Dilip Parameshwar Gaonkar's essay The Idea of Rhetoric in the Rhetoric of Science, is a critique that simultaneously exposes, organizes, and evaluates the prevailing assumptions of rhetorical theory and criticism. Dense, imaginative, scholarly, and witty, his essay and its responses are sure to be discussed for years to come.
