About the Author
David Rosenwasser teaches at Muhlenberg College, a small liberal arts college in Pennsylvania, where he has been since the late 1980s. He and Jill Stephen created and implemented the Writing Across the Curriculum program there through a series of faculty seminars. During these seminars, Dr. Rosenwasser and Dr. Stephen discovered that while content faculty from across the disciplines maintained disciplinary-specific writing protocols, they essentially wanted the same thing from student writing: analysis. From this premise, WRITING ANALYTICALLY was born. Dr. Rosenwasser received his B.A. from Grinnell College and his Ph.D. from the University of Virginia in the theory and history of narrative. His current interests include contemporary Irish literature and comic theory. His most recent literary papers include a study of the contemporary Irish writer Edna O'Brien in relation to the work of Joyce and Yeats as well as an analysis of the politics of Bruce Springsteen's albums during the Bush presidency, written collaboratively with a political science professor.
Review
"The text provides the best-hands down the best-instruction for students to write solid, interesting, purposeful academic writing."
"This book does a better job of describing the writing process than any textbook I've encountered. The book either uses terms I've used over and over, or it suggests terms I like better than the ones I've been using. One of the most impressive features of this text is its ability to recognize those aspects of students' writing that seem to be important in all disciplines and to find appropriate names for [these]."
