Writing in a Changing World: Writer's Guide with Handbook Book

Writing in a Changing World is an all-in-one writer's guide, reader, research guide, and handbook designed for today's very diverse student population. Writing in a Changing World builds students' competence and confidence by guiding them through gradually more challenging writing tasks. This guide progresses from first-hand observation and personal experience to public issues, helping students build the bridge from personal writing to public discourse. It also moves from an early emphasis on critical reading and informal research through more sophisticated rhetorical and critical thinking strategies to formal research and the documented research paper. Extensive readings, frequent assignments, chapters on writing about literature and writing on the job, and an editing guide with special help for ESL students make Writing in a Changing World an exceptionally rich resource for first-year students and instructors.Read More
