About this title

From the Publisher:

This comprehensive rhetoric is uniquely organized around purposes or areas for writers, including research and writing about literature. Each well-structured chapter contains process-oriented advice on choosing a subject, collecting data, drafting, and revising essays for each purpose and customizing major rhetorical strategies to each purpose. Effective student examples, professional essays, and journal exercises help introduce students to the writing process as it changes with each different purpose.

From the Back Cover:

The book focuses on the importance of a writer's research, critical reading skills, the ability to organize ideas, and a purpose to assess and develop rhetorical contexts Key Topics: Retaining an emphasis on traditional writing purpose and process, the author also acknowledges the technological changes that influence and enhance contemporary writing. The new edition demonstrates how computers and networks provide additional opportunities for communication, writing, and revising while the World Wide Web and the Internet are becoming an important part of the research process.
