Description

Academic writing is a conversation -- a collaborative exchange of ideas to pursue new knowledge. "From Inquiry to Academic Writing: A Text and Reader" demystifies cross-curricular thinking and writing by breaking it down into a series of comprehensible habits and skills that students can learn in order to join in. The extensive thematic reader opens up thought-provoking conversations being held throughout the academy and in the culture at large.
