Customer Reviews

Well-deserved standard for expository writing!

This book, commonly known as WARP, is one of dozens designed to help students through the wilderness of paper writing. Unlike the others, however, it has become something of a standard in high schools, colleges, and even elementary schools, thanks to its clear, concise, up-to-date writing, and the excellent examples it provides. The book is short enough (and cheap enough) to be used as required reading for entire classes, and is remarkably useful for a surprisingly wide range of reader/writers. It was distributed as a textbook (and set of marching orders!) to my son's sixth grade class, but its no-nonsense approach would work just as well for college students. Very impressive accomplishment, and highly recommended.

A gem for incorporating internet bibliographies

I've used this text with my international college students with great success, and I gave my high school daughter her own copy, which all her friends beg to borrow. The model essays are superb, and the up-to-the-date section on internet searching and citation should be used by all teachers and students in the year 2000!

A Book for Writers in the Millenium

Having problems with internet citations in your papers? Ceely et.al. have solved the problem in the clearest and most logical way. I highly recommend this book for teachers of writing across the curriculum. Writing a Research Paper is even better in its fifth edition than it was in its fourth since it contains more student work, and it wonderfully prepares students to use technology in their research.Glenn A.
