Rhetoric, Readings, Research Guide, and Handbook
PENGUIN ACADEMICS
Compact but complete–and always at a reasonable price!
For more than 60 years, instructors and their students have looked to Penguin trade paperbacks for state-of-the-art scholarship, accessibility, and fair prices. Longman, Penguin’s sister company, aims to meet those same expectations with textbooks in our Penguin Academics series.
We’ve created the Penguin Academics series with ease of use in mind. Concise yet thorough in their coverage of the basics, Penguin Academics titles are ideal for use either by themselves or in combination with other books.
College Writing Essentials: Rhetoric, Readings, Research Guide, and Handbook by Harvey S. Wiener is the first brief rhetorically organized writing guide of its kind. Prewriting, drafting, revising, and research writing receive thorough and complete coverage, but only the most frequently taught methods of development–description, example, process, comparison and contrast, cause and effect, and argument–are included. Coverage of these methods of development is comprehensive, but the least frequently assigned methods have been eliminated. You benefit from essential content at a reasonable price.
Among other features, you will find in College Writing Essentials:
- Over 25 student essays–one third of which are annotated to help you recognize the decisions other student writers have made.
- More than 40 professional selections–which include classic and contemporary essays, photographs, cartoons, and Web sites–providing you with content for response as well as models for using different rhetorical strategies in your own papers.
- Argument writing prompts, “Having Your Say,” that ask you to consider a high-interest or controversial topic and argue your position. These prompts appear throughout the text–not just in an argument chapter–so that you can strengthen argumentation skills throughout the course.
- Coverage of essay exams, research, source-based writing, literary analysis, and style.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Textbooks_Source, Columbia, Missouri, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
