The book is a critical analysis of the state of English composition in American schools and universities during the early 20th century. The author argues that the teaching of English composition is inadequate and that it fails to prepare students for the demands of modern society.The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the history of English composition in American schools and universities.

These solutions include the development of a standardized curriculum for English composition, the use of more practical and relevant writing assignments, and the incorporation of technology into the teaching of writing.Overall, English Composition As A Social Problem is a thought-provoking book that raises important questions about the role of English composition in American education.
