This third edition of the well-respected guide provides assistance
for students of all subjects on how to write better. If students
are to do well and progress in their chosen career they must
develop the ability to write clearly, concisely and persuasively.
This text helps students achieve this by providing them with
valuable advice on how to:
* make good notes
* find information, cite sources and list references
* write better coursework assignments
* achieve higher grades in tests and examinations
* prepare a well-organized dissertation, long essay, term paper,
project report or thesis
* write effective letters and applications.
The text includes straightforward guidance on word choice and use,
and on using numbers, tables, and illustrations to complement
writing. Revised and updated, this edition acknowledges the
increasing importance of computers as an aid to writing and
discusses how they can be used to retrieve information and prepare
coursework assignments. The exercises at the end of most chapters
are there to consolidate new information and can be undertaken by
students working alone or by tutors as a basis for group work.
Written by an esteemed author with many years experience of helping
students improve writing and other key skills, this book provides
stimulating and eminently sensible guidance on how to write
successfully.
