Description - (back cover) Revised for the new writing situations you encounter every day and grounded in real-world student examples, the seventh edition of The Wadsworth Handbook focuses on:
- Purpose and Audience A new Chapter 1, "Understanding Purpose, Audience, and Tone," defines audience and purpose as the foundation for any writing decision you make. Discussions of purpose, audience, and tone are woven throughout the book, illustrating how different contexts call for different writing styles.
- Visual Rhetoric A new Chapter 2, "Reading to Write," provides expanded coverage of critical reading, introducing the concept of visual rhetoric. The text guides you as you learn both how to interpret visuals and how to create and use visuals effectively in your own writing.
- Technology The Wadsworth Handbook now emphasizes the relationship between technology and writing. New sections as well as new chapters are devoted to document design and to helping you get the most out of word-processing software.
- Writing in the Disciplines More than any other handbook, The Wadsworth Handbook integrates coverage of writing in the disciplines throughout the entire text. Part 4, "Writing in the Disciplines," devotes three chapters to discipline-specific conventions and resources.
- Practical Advice The only comprehensive handbook to incorporate a section on "Developing Strategies for Academic Success," including a new and unique Chapter 26, "Ten Habits of Successful Students," The Wadsworth Handbook offers practical advice on managing your time, using technology effectively, writing for the workplace, and more.
