Synopsis:
Renowned composition scholars Anson and Schwegler introduce The Longman Writer's Companion, a truly innovative handbook that offers students a clear view into the role of audience and purpose in the writing process. This compact handbook offers students an integrated discussion of three principal writing communities―academic, public, and work; this exploration of communities encourages students to adjust writing style and purpose to meet the needs of varying audiences. Students and instructors alike will also appreciate the authors' distinctive Read/Recognize/Revise approach to understanding grammar and style.
From the Back Cover:
The Longman Writer's Companion is unique among handbooks in its focus on writing within different communities. While the handbook highlights the importance of the academic setting, it also recognizes writing as a tool essential for success in life-in the workplace and in the public realm of citizenship. This focus on community shapes the entire handbook-the presentation of writing, critical reasoning, language, online style, document design, research, technology, evaluating sources, and documentation. Community needs also influence the handbook's sections on grammar and usage through the unique read-recognize-revise pattern. This approach encourages students to see errors as their readers do. The handbook then offers concrete strategies for repairing those errors. The Longman Writer's Companion is a practical, easy-to-use resource that helps writers connect successfully with their readers in academic, work, and public communities.
