"The Handbook of Academic Writing" offers practical advice to busy
academics who want, and are often required, to integrate writing
into their working lives. It defines what academic writing is, and
the process of getting started through to completion, covering
topics such as: . . Gaining momentum. Reviewing and revising.
Self-discipline. Writing regularly. Writers' groups and retreats. .
. Academic writing is one of the most demanding tasks that all
academics and researchers face. In some disciplines there is
guidance on what is needed to be productive, successful writers;
but in other disciplines there is no training, support or mentoring
of any kind. This book helps those in both groups not only to
improve their writing skills and strategies, but, equally
importantly, to find satisfaction in engaging in regular and
productive writing.
. . Underpinned by a diverse range of literature, this book
addresses the different dimensions of writing. The fresh approach
that Murray and Moore explore in this book includes developing
rhetorical knowledge, focusing on writing behaviours and
understanding writing contexts.
. . This book will help writers in academic contexts to develop
a productive writing strategy, not only for research monitoring
exercises, but also for the long term..
