"If you are to do well as a student, and progress in your chosed career, the ability to express yourself clearly, concisely and persuasively in writing is a skill you should be trying to develop.
Students Must Write is a guide to better writing for students of all subjects. It may be read either as as alternative to a course on written communication or to complement such a course. Tutors who have recommended earlier editions to their students will find that this new edition continues to provide a straightforward introduction to the essentials of scholarly writing. Changes have not been made simply for the sake of change, but all chapters have been updated where necessary - especially in relation to the increasing importance of computers in retrieving information and in preparing course work assignments.
You will find straightforward advice on the choice and use of words; on how to cite sources of information and list bibliographic details of these sources; on how to answer questions in coursework, tests and examinations; on how to write a dissertation, long essay, term paper, project report or thesis; on how to write letters and applications; on using a computer as an aid to writing; and on punctuation and spelling.
The exercises headed Improve Your Writing, at the end of most chapters, can be undertaken by students working alone or used by tutors as a basis for group work in courses on written communication." ISBN--- 97804158358262
