About this title

Synopsis

Written in a clear, engaging style, this 4-in-1 volume combines four books—a rhetoric, a research guide, a reader, and a handbook—into one convenient learning/reference tool. The Rhetoric section presents a full range of writing strategies, along with chapters on paragraphs, sentences, style, and three specialized types of writing, and in-depth chapters on planning and drafting, as well as revising and editing a paper. The Research Guide section includes three comprehensive chapters on the research process. The Reader section contains forty-four essays that illustrate the different writing strategies and display a wide variety of styles, tones, and themes. The Handbook section offers easy access to the major elements of grammar, punctuation, and mechanics, and includes a unit on spelling and a glossary of word usage. (The book is available in an alternate version—without the Handbook section.) For anyone wanting an all-in-one resource for learning or reviewing rhetorical writing strategies.
