520 | _a"Based on the successful text, The College Writer, Writing Life: A Canadian Student’s Guide to Thinking, Writing, and Researching is built upon the belief that good writing is an important skill, not just for academic success, but beyond into life as well. Bringing together a rhetoric that introduces the writing process, a selection of readings, guide to doing quality research in the internet age and a handbook, these four sections offer students a comprehensive guide to writing. This edition incorporates Canadian essays, by students and professionals, critical thinking and an overall emphasis on reading as a foundation to improving one’s writing skills. Between two covers Writing Life offers students a comprehensive guide to writing for postsecondary and beyond." (Publisher's Website) | ||
