The Longman Writer's Companion

by Chris M. Anson, Robert A. Schwegler, Marcia F. Muth

Renowned composition scholars Anson and Schwegler introduce The Longman Writer's Companion, a truly innovative handbook that offers students a clear view into the role of audience and purpose in the writing process. This compact handbook offers students an integrated discussion of three principal writing communities--academic, public, and work; this exploration of communities encourages students to adjust writing style and purpose to meet the needs of varying audiences. Students and instructors alike will also appreciate the authors' distinctive Read/Recognize/Revise approach to understanding grammar and style.
