The most important thing to know about Cody and Quinn is that we believe that rhetoric is for everyone.
As authors, academics, and educators, we are committed to making rhetoric theory available and approachable for a broad public audience. Rhetoric, at its best, is a powerful tool for solving difficult problems and everybody deserves access to the resources they need to ethically apply rhetorical theory in their daily lives.

If nature gives birth to an animal that can talk, then by the same token, nature becomes able to comment on itself.
