Axelrod & Cooper's Concise Guide to Writing

by Charles R. Cooper and Rise B. Axelrod

Book Overview

Adapted from the best-selling St. Martin's Guide to Writing , Axelrod and Cooper's Concise Guide to Writing provides streamlined versions of the chapters covering six of the most commonly assigned genres in the first-year writing course -- remembering events, writing profiles, explaining concepts, arguing a position, proposing a solution, and justifying an evaluation. The careful integration of well-chosen readings with guided writing instruction in these chapters is complemented by coverage of strategies for reading, writing, and research in brief-but-complete chapters at the end of the book.

As I am a college student, I found the Axelrod & Cooper's textbook "Concise Guide to Writing" helpful in my studies as well as informative and rewarding in achieving and mainttaing my desired grade.

Good!

when I saw the cover, I thought it would be very unqualified, but the inside was very clean, like it was never used before. I am really satisfied.
