内容説明
'A systematic, coherent approach to developing critical reading and writing skills that are applicable to a range of different levels of analysis and types of reading and writing tasks. The authors are to be commended for the clarity of their writing and the way scaffolded advice and tasks are integrated into the text. The book could form the core text for a course on critical reading and writing and a useful reference tool for the academic recently entered upon writing for publication.' - Educate Journal

" ask questions in order to evaluate authors' arguments
" keep a review manageable by using focused review questions
" structure a comparative review of multiple texts
" build up a convincing argument
" integrate critical literature reviews into a dissertation or thesis
" make the transition from postgraduate to professional academic writer
Essential reading for novice researchers, the book will also be invaluable for supervisors, methods course tutors, and academic mentors who teach and support the development of critical reading and self-critical writing skills.
