Book excerpt: A critical history of the gendered politics of rhetoric and the rise of composition. By tracing the persistence of gender issues in rhetoric and composition texts, Brody argues that the seemingly innocuous, unpretentious, and often homespun advice teachers and textbook authors typically have given to fledgling writers is in fact part of a complex agenda for maintaining power.
