In a stimulating and novel approach, this book explains why metaphors are persuasive, suggesting that they are ideologically effective because they are cognitively plausible and evoke an emotional response.

By unifying traditional and cognitive semantics with pragmatic approaches, the reader becomes aware of the importance of metaphor in persuasive language.
