Summary

In the Allyn and Bacon Guide to Writing, we talk honestly about what we know and what still mystifies us about writing, inviting students to join in our quest of teachers, our study of composition theory and pedagogy, our admiration and empathy for those who teach composition, and our faith in the intelligence and integrity of students.
