There are courses that teach such skills. I doubt the above really answers your question, because it doesn't look like you meant "inarticulate" in its literal sense. It looks like you're trying to criticise either the book or those for whom it was written or both, but I have only a very foggy impression of what kind of criticism you're trying to make or what your reasons might be. Have you read the book? I read a portion of it, and the part I read struck me as rather insightful. -- Dana S.
