From the Back Cover

This book helps writers reconceptualize what is thought of as " the personal" within larger social contexts. It enables a writer to move from mere opinion to analytical and persuasive writing.

Writers are asked to engage in two complementary forms of inquiry: "historical analysis" analyzes change and continuity over time; and "cultural analysis" explores how and why different perspectives can exist within the same time period. In short, this book shows how to trace how a particular issue is woven into the larger social and cultural fabric For help with writing historical and cultural analyses.
