Volumes in WRITING SPACES: READINGS ON WRITING offer multiple
perspectives on a wide-range of topics about writing. In each
chapter, authors present their unique views, insights, and
strategies for writing by addressing the undergraduate reader
directly. Drawing on their own experiences, these
teachers-as-writers invite students to join in the larger
conversation about the craft of writing. Consequently, each essay
functions as a standalone text that can easily complement other
selected readings in writing or writing-intensive courses across
the disciplines at any level. Volume 2 continues the tradition of
the previous volume with topics, such as the rhetorical situation,
collaboration, documentation styles, weblogs, invention, writing
assignment interpretation, reading critically, information
literacy, ethnography, interviewing, argument, document design, and
source integration. All volumes in the series are published under a
Creative Commons license and available for download at the Writing
Spaces website (http: //www.writingspaces.org), Parlor Press (http:
//www.parlorpress.com), and the WAC Clearinghouse (http:
//wac.colostate.edu/). Charles Lowe is Assistant Professor of
Writing at Grand Valley State University where he teachers
composition, professional writing, and Web design. Pavel Zemliansky

Technical Communication at James Madison University. CONTENTS 1.Ten
