The College Writer's Reference (Tabbed Version) (MyCompLab Series)

This brief handbook offers the most focus on the writing process. The entire book is also available on the Internet, where it is fully searchable and customizable. This writing handbook focuses on the writing process, the research process, document design, clarity, punctuation, grammar, and documentation. This is a perfect reference for anyone wanting to produce effective written communications.

A progressive alternative to traditional handbooks, this compact reference for writers offers concise yet thorough coverage of all handbook concerns, with material uniquely organized around the stages of the writing process. Traditional topics on issues of style, grammar, punctuation, and mechanics are presented as "editing" choices students make in the final stage of the writing process. With composition expert Toby Fulwiler's advice on writing, The College Writer's Reference offers the only teachable treatment of the writing process available in a brief handbook. The four–color text design, lay–flat spiral binding, and abundant use of student writing and hand-edited examples all make information easy to find, use, and understand.
