Berger’s slim, user-friendly volume on academic writing is a gift to linguistically-stressed academics. Author of 60 published books, the author speaks to junior scholars and graduate students about the process and products of academic writing. He differentiates between business writing skills for memos, proposals, and reports, and the scholarly writing that occurs in journals and books. He has suggestions for getting the “turgid” out of turgid academic prose and offers suggestions on how to best structure various forms of documents for effective communication. Written in Berger’s friendly, personal style, he shows by example that academics can write good, readable prose in a variety of genres.

Tabbed flipchart designed as a ready reference for content reading and writing instruction.

Using literature as a base, the program develops students' capacities to read, write, speak, and listen, and helps them to connect literature to other content areas. At the same time, it fosters habits of critical thinking, aesthetic appreciation, and cooperative interaction."--Page T13
