What is included with this book?
Five new readings provide up-to-date models for students and showcase style in academic writing. A speech by presidential candidate Barack Obama, two academic articles by noted scholars Drew Gilpin Faust and Lily Wong Fillmore, a public argument by well-known litigator Theodore Olson, and a new case study from science writer Oliver Sacks show students how skilled stylists craft their writing.
New and revised exercises, drawing from new model texts, offer increased focus on revising and editing as well as additional practice with style in academic writing. All exercises are reviewed by a panel of real student writers.
A new Web site, developed specifically for The Well-Crafted Sentence, gives students more opportunities to learn and practice their skills. The site will include a searchable glossary, a new parts of speech guide, and other free and premium online resources from Bedford/St. Martin's.
