Best Resource Book for Teaching Research Paper Writing

Research Papers for Dummies I'm using this book to teach the subject to high school seniors. It is my favorite among many books on the subject. G.

A Formula That Works!

Research Papers for Dummies could easily be called "Recipes for Research" because the same process is followed in every research production.
