Description
Are you studying a subject in the humanities or social sciences? Do you have a long essay, dissertation, or thesis to write? This short guide is for international students, mature students, and all students uncertain as to how to proceed.
You won't have time to read more than you need to, so the student-friendly text is kept to a minimum. Advice is given concerning your title, what you might cover in your introduction; your review of the literatureβyour analysis of the 'received opinion' on the subject; your own counter-argument; your sources and use of evidence; and your conclusion.
A number of short, illustrative passages are included, written by distinguished authors, as well as a summary structure plan and exemplar essay.
A No-Nonsense Guide to Academic Writing by Colin Swatridge is an essential companion for those embarking on academic writing tasks.
