Produktbeschreibung
This second, international edition of Writing Better Essays is an authoritative yet accessible guide to writing successful argumentative essays that combines classical approaches with practical advice tailored to contemporary students. Designed to be effective either in the classroom or for independent learning, this book provides a step by step program featuring plentiful exercises and a range of examples of good practice that will appeal to undergraduate students as well as postgraduate students and others wishing to improve their writing. Its unique features include the postponing of a planning stage until after students have done some research and generative writing on their topic, an early and continuing emphasis in the writing process on a reiterative structure that ties together the thesis statement and essay conclusion, and the imitation of models of good practice as a means for students to improve the clarity and coherence of their own style and voice. Teachers of writing should appreciate the instructor's guide at the beginning of the book as well as the consistent emphasis throughout on the need for students to commit themselves to revision and practice if they want to write effective argumentative essays.
