The Norton Field Guide to Writing with Readings and Handbook Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Easy to use, flexible, and a great value. With just enough detail — and color-coded links that send students to more detail if they need it — this is the rhetoric that tells students what they need to know and resists the temptation to tell them everything there is to know. The first rhetoric designed for easy reference — with menus, directories, and a glossary/index that make it easy to use.

The Norton Field Guide to Writing with Readings and Handbook includes an anthology of 60 readings — 29 new to the second edition. Color-coded links offer teachers the flexibility of centering their classes on the rhetoric or the readings. And the handbook is in back, helping students edit what they write.

Synopsis:

Small and handy, with color-coding that makes it easy for students to navigate. Written in everyday language, making it simple for them to understand. Just enough detail, with brief guides to writing that have color-coded links to specific pages where students can find more information if they need it. This and more has made The Norton Field Guide the first rhetoric that's easy for students to use. Now available in a version with a handbook, providing everything students need to write. The Field Guide is up front, providing the guidance students need for writing all the kinds of discourse they need to write in college; the Handbook is in the back, helping them to edit what they write.

Synopsis:

Easy to use, and to understand. Just enough detail. Flexible. Affordable. Already in use at more than 300 colleges and universities.

Synopsis:

The most successful new rhetoric in a generation, with a reader and a handbook--everything students need, in one book.
