Great!

Super fast shipping, and the book was in great shape. Would order from them again no problem.

writing and research guide a success

This text is very usable and easy to read. It holds all the information for one to compose college level documents with examples of styles of writing, along with APA and MLA systems for preparing papers. This is the everything about writing textbook! Great reference guide!

For both native-language AND ESL/EFL writers in English

This book is an excellent study guide and reference for the home or office. The editing, spelling, and research sections are very well done. There are chapters on business letters, resumes, diction, narration, argument, making yourself clear, documenting sources, punctuation and mechanics.This is probably the best single collection of all this material for a writer that I have ever seen in one book! I would recommend this book to both native-English writers and also ESL/EFL learners who are writing in English not as their first language. For them especially, this book would help them make a great leap to first-rate or even professional writing quality!If I'd have any complaint, it is that the authors obviously chose mostly politically-correct ("PC") topics for their "Reader" section of the book. All the "diversity" articles over and over get old quick and I would not want to find "Women's Issues" in a book like this at all, which is not the place for pushing an author's PC agendas! Otherwise, the whole rest of the writing instruction is useful.

Great Seller

Thanks so much for the great deal and fast shipping! The item arrived in perfect condition!

Strategies for Successful Writing

This is a book that you will use over and over again. I started using this book because it was a required textbook for a Writing Class that I just finished. The book talks about the purposes of writing, your audience for writing and qualities of writing. The book was especially helpful for planning and drafting your first essay. It shows you how to write using Illustration, Comparison, Cause and Effect and Arguments. It also gives you examples of these writing styles. At the end of each Chapter, you have discussion questions and suggestions for writing. It is full of possible topics for you to write essay's on. A wonderful book full of ideas and resources.
