Strategic Maneuvering in American Civil and Criminal Court Trials

This work is of special importance to pragmaticians, applied linguists and anyone interested in law. It gives a clear picture of how lawyers make use of the so-called "legal gaps" in order to achieve their aims and win over their opponents. Moreover, it is useful to laymen in their everyday life. It is as such because it shows obviously how we can design our argumentation to be more persuasive and effective than our peer arguers.
