Summary |
A Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations remains one of the most popular books for writers because of its timeless focus on achieving their goals. This new edition filters decades of expertise into modern standards, recognizing that most students will be doing their work largely or entirely online and on screens. Chapters include updated advice on finding, evaluating, and citing a wide range of digital sources and also recognize the evolving use of software for citation management, graphics, and paper format and submission. Through eight decades and millions of copies, A Manual for Writers has helped generations shape their ideas into compelling research papers. This new edition will continue to be the gold standard for college and graduate students in virtually all academic disciplines. --adapted from page [4] of cover. |
