The Everyday Writer [with Everything's an Argument & I-Claim]

by Andrea A. Lunsford

Course bundle 9780312450977: Everyday Writer with John J. Ruszkiewicz's Everything's an Argument & Patrick Clauss' I-Claim

Andrea Lunsford’s research shows that students are writing more than ever — in classrooms, workplaces, and social spaces, in local communities and around the world. The Everyday Writer, Fifth Edition, is the first tabbed handbook to help the participants in this "literacy revolution" build on the smart decisions they make as social writers — and use their skills in their academic and professional work. With Andrea Lunsford’s trademark attention to rhetorical choice and language, and with new chapters on public writing, critical reading, and understanding how and why to use documentation, The Everyday Writer gives today’s students the information they need to be effective, ethical writers. New illustrations by graphic artist G.B. Tran make complicated concepts clear and inviting for students.

If you don't have this in your arsenal, then why are you writing? Or reading, for that matter. I've got a dozen of these hanging around the house. And even though I teach this stuff, go to brush up and refine. Refine . . . . hmmmmmmmmm. Something all America needs, yes? But I like this one because . . . OK, I'll be honest . . . the colors and layout. Do you know those are two of the major criteria the district board members use to chose school text books? It's soooooooo scientific. What the hell am I talking about . . . Anyway, I also like the ease of use . . . and the layout. Oooops! Did I mention that? And the layout . . . OK, now you're doing that on pupose . . . the layout . . . STOP IT!!!!!!

This was a required text for an English course I took. I will always keep a copy on hand. This book is easy to locate specific information in, even for younger writers.
