Abstract
"In developing the theme that style is meaningful, the author draws meaningfully on theory, especially genre theory, while remaining grounded in the particular; throughout the text and in the accompanying reader, Giltrow presents and discusses examples of actual academic writing of the sort that students must learn to deal with daily, and to write themselves. Includes exercises to help the student develop techniques for working productively at each stage of the scholarly writing process; mastering and summarizing difficulty scholarly sources; planning; and revising to create good working conditions for the reader."--
