With examples from classical literature and advice compiled from many different sources, this book will ground you in methods that have been developed over centuries of rhetorical exercise. By: Scott Lovell. And, because these moves are central across all disciplines, the audiobook includes chapters on writing in the sciences, writing in the social sciences, and - new to this edition - writing about literature.
The readings are incomplete and the context makes no sense. It sounds as if it was a conspiracy story. Not a learning tool I would say. Does not match the text. I purchased this on kindle and audible, it's missing the whole "reading" section I wanted it for. What did you like least? I borrowed this book because I needed it for a class at short notice. Many thanks to the authors for having the foresight to make this an audiobook.
It was a pleasant surprise. The disappointment crept in when I had a hard time following. This text, in print, has writing prompts which do not translate well in the audio version. A companion PDF of the text would have been awesome. Until then, potential customers should download this audio FILE, which currently has no text companion, their own risks. This book helped me when I was preparing for my comprehensive exam. It is insightful and would be an asset to any college student who is writing essays.
This book was probably better in print, but the framework is a good model for teaching young students how to write more effectively. The audiobook was hard to track and difficult to follow their writing samples and examples. I used this book for my free trial and to help me in my English class for college. My only complaint is that when you get to the reading section which is in the third edition not all of those reading were available in this audio version.
Also the chapters don't sync up as well, as this was for a college course we don't necessarily do the book from front to back. We skip around a bit. The chapters didn't match up to what was in the book. Took a minute to find where I needed to be in the audio book. Chapters are not the same as text, and readings are missing. Upset that I wasted my credit on it. Great foundation to create or enhance writing skills. I own the handbook. An awesome tool. I was recommended this book to help with writing papers for school.
Although I find this book to be good, I think this is better to have a hard copy than in audio format. Related Books Free with a 30 day trial from Scribd. Dry: A Memoir Augusten Burroughs.

It does not consider the requirements of writing. In my view, this template represents the deep, underlying structure, the internal DNA as it were, of all effective arguments.
These templates also have a generative quality, prompting students to make moves in their writing that they might not otherwise make or even know they should make. The templates this book can be particularly helpful for students who are unsure about what to say, or who have trouble finding enough to say. Often because they consider their own beliefs so self-evident that they need not be argued for. Most of his life spent on research work.
