  • "... [the book] is more than simply a collection of readings for a college writing course; [the authors] goal throughout continues to be to teach students practical strategies for critical reading, thereby enabling them to analyze thoughtfully the readings in this text and in their other college courses. [The authors] assume that college students should learn to think and read critically and that as they become better critical readers, they will also become more effective writers. To this instruction in reading, [they] add comprehensive guidance in writing, helping students to understand and manage the composing process-from invention through planning and drafting to revision. This text attempts to bring critical reading and writing together in an ideal relationship. After their initial reading of each of the selections included here, students are encouraged to read and annotate the essay and to write about their responses to its meaning. Then they return to the essay again to annotate, analyze, and write about one or more of its distinctive rhetorical features: [Annot cont.]."
  • "[The book] is a composition reader and text that teaches critical thinking skills and then provides strategies to help students apply these skills to their reading and writing. The book contains 69 examples of classic, professional, and academic writing suitable for the college-level student. The authors examine several different writing genres-including four chapters that deal with argument-and provide step-by-step reading guidelines and an annotated sample selection for each. Writing guidelines at the end of each chapter offer several approaches students might take in composing a paper of that genre and include appropriate invention and revision strategies.-Back cover."
