Produktbeschreibung
This book seeks to uncover some of the underpinnings of constructing argumentation in English and Arabic media discourse. It investigates the process of creating and sharing meaning among people from English and Arabic cultural backgrounds.

The editorial, in a major newspaper at least, typically represents the metropolitan values of a society. In this respect, editorials from different languages and cultures constitute useful opinion sources for obtaining contrastive analyses for language students, teachers, and global professionals.
