内容説明
WRITING THE RESEARCH PAPER is an easily accessible handbook that provides students with simple, specific information on the conventions of the research paper. With its easy-to-digest steps that demystify the writing process, this handbook enables students to work independently in creating their research papers--throughout their college careers and beyond. Comprehensive, up-to-date information is conveyed in a calm and reassuring tone that encourages students to turn to any section of the text at any time for immediate, expert assistance. Each self-contained section is as concise as possible and can be used effectively in any order depending on the needs of the individual and course. This edition has been updated to reflect guidelines from the 2009 MLA HANDBOOK FOR WRITERS OF RESEARCH PAPERS, 7E.
