The readings in the Student's Book offer a wide range of choices in terms of subject, genre, culture, gender, point of view, length, style, and theme, and yet lend themselves well to comparison, both within and across genres. These selections represent a number of diverse fields, including fiction and poetry, anthropology, education, biology, psychology, and business. The text also offers a variety of writing assignments, including a field research project. It includes guidelines for summarizing, paraphrasing, quoting, documenting sources, and editing.
Guidelines: A Cross-Cultural Reading/Writing Text, Second Edition, integrates classic and contemporary readings with essay assignments that emphasize the connection between reading and writing. Students are challenged to think critically about what they read and to develop analytical and argumentative skills that enable them to present and support their ideas. Four major sections ("Reading", "Readings and Writing Assignments", "Academic Reading and Writing Skills", and "The Editing Process") provide innovative guidelines for reading, writing, and editing.
