Review

Comments on Previous Edition

"What a wonderful and insightful collection of essays. My writing courses improved by leaps and bounds when I adopted the first edition."--Beth Staley, West Virginia University

"Broadview has surpassed itself. This eclectic anthology represents the essay as a supple form of expression, and its subject as all that pertains to the human condition. Invaluable for the classroom, this collection will also challenge, amuse, provoke, and console the general reader."--Susanna Egan, University of British Columbia

"My students' responses to the readings have sparked meaningful and productive conversations about culture, education, and our ways of viewing the world. To my delight, at the end of a typical meeting we are left with even more questions than when we began. This text fosters students' growth as inquisitive, critical readers and opens the doorway to future academic work."--Alixandra V. Krzemien, Canisius College

"Articles such as Binyavanga Wainaina's 'How to Write about Africa' and Malcolm Gladwell's 'None of the Above: What I.Q. Doesn't Tell You About Race' provide material that is both current and controversial, making it perfect for class discussions focused on the critical expression of relevant issues. The [editors offer] insightful questions at the end of each article and have chosen readings carefully--[this is an anthology] ... that can be used beneficially in class discussion and as the basis for written assignments."--Louise Nichols, Universite de Moncton

"The Broadview Anthology of Expository Prose is one of the best essay anthologies I have seen. The remarkable diversity of the essays covers an impressive range of authors, styles, topics, and viewpoints."--Paul D. Farkas, Metropolitan State College

"The third edition of The Broadview Anthology of Expository Prose is even more relevant than ever. This wide-ranging compilation of articles can help students navigate the troubled waters of politics, race, and gender issues. Of particular note is the thematic Aboriginal North Americans section, which includes a piece on Canada's Truth and Reconciliation Commission. This anthology will challenge students to make connections among the diverse selections, opening new channels of classroom debate and written response." --Laurie Cooper, Universite de Moncton

"This new edition of an already excellent teaching text has doubled in size and expanded its website offerings, making it doubly indispensable. First- and second-year university students will continue to benefit from encountering classics old and new, but coverage has expanded to include not only more texts fundamental to the Canadian story, but also a global array of voices addressing timely issues, from mental health, gender identity, human-animal relations, and climate change to reconciliation, racialized inequality, the effects of social media, and political systems under stress. The Broadview Anthology of Expository Prose presents the essay as language at its most engaging, provocative, and inspiring." --Betty A. Schellenberg, Simon Fraser University

"An impressive collection. The Broadview Anthology of Expository Prose is sure to spark stimulating class discussions on a wide range of contemporary issues and help students improve their critical thinking, reading, and writing skills." --Farah Moosa, Vancouver Island University
