- Engagingly written with lively examples and timely model papers, What It Takes will help you spot the crux of an argument and find the elements across a variety of sources that will bolster and invigorate your academic writing.
- Success in many college courses depends upon how well you write papers and exams. The material in What It Takes has a proven track record of helping generations of students achieve this goal.
