The Little, Brown Compact Handbook with Exercises packages the
authority and currency of its best-selling parent, The Little,
Brown Handbook, in a briefer book with a spiral binding, tabbed
dividers, and more than 150 exercises. A bestseller since
publication, The Little, Brown Compact Handbook with Exercises
provides reliable and thorough coverage of handbook basics--the
writing process, grammar and usage, research and
documentation--while also giving detailed discussions of critical
reading, academic writing, argument, writing in the disciplines,
and public writing. Widely used by both experienced and
inexperienced writers, The Little, Brown Compact Handbook with
Exercises works as both a comprehensive classroom text and an
accessible reference guide. The Little, Brown Compact Handbook with
Exercises has a sibling without exercises. Otherwise identical,
both books build on their best-selling features with five emphases:
(1) media-rich eText and iPad versions, including video tutorials,
podcasts, sample documents, exercise, and checklists;(2)academic
writing, including a new chapter on joining the academic community,
new coverage of genre, more on summary and academic integrity, and
four new sample academic papers; (3) research writing, including
new material on finding and evaluating Web sites, social-networking
sites, blogs, wikis, and multimedia; (4) thorough and up-to-date
documentation guidelines, including the most recent versions of
MLA, APA, Chicago, and CSE styles with models of new media in each
style and new annotated sample sources; (5) thewriting process,
including new material on genre and strengthened discussions of the
thesis and paragraphs.
