Appropriate for first-year composition courses at colleges and universities.
In its second edition, this text has been extensively revised and focused on its demonstrated strength: showing how good writing arises out of good reading. Part I deals with the reading and writing process; Part II constitutes an anthology of readings. In the process chapters students are led step-by-step through a reading occasion, and are encouraged to read actively. The next step is the writing occasion where the students use their written responses to the readings as their raw material.
