Techniques of Close Reading differs from other books in rhetorical criticism, textual analysis, or critical thinking by:
- Focusing on the act and techniques of criticism rather than on schools of thought, grand theories, and specific methods, thus helping students to engage in the act of critical close reading in ways that are congenial to a wide range of methods (for that reason, it is highly adaptable to other texts currently in use that are focused on specific methods)
- Explaining the relationships among theory, methods, and techniques of rhetorical criticism
- Examining the ethics and risk of doing and reading rhetorical criticism via plenty of examples, figures, and exercises taken from everyday life
