As a college student, I really appreciate this book. So many times it is hard to write down what I want to say in a clear and concise way. Academic writing in particular needs to be written in a way that is easily understood and covers the topic sufficiently. It was nice to have a reference that breaks the idea of a thesis down and helps the student understand the goal of a thesis. My college English classes didn't go into this much detail. This will be a book I will keep nearby for a long time!
