Writer's Reference - Exercises (6th, 07) by Hacker, Diana [Paperback (2007)]

Having helped nearly 3 million students at 1,600 colleges and universities to write well, "A Writer's Reference" succeeds because it has always been grounded in classroom experience. Nearly twenty years ago, Diana Hacker reinvented the college handbook by looking at her own students' needs. She crafted a first-of-its-kind reference that offered practical solutions to college writing problems in a language students could understand and in a format that was easy for them to use. Her many innovations -- hand-edited sentences, grammar checker boxes, student-friendly index entries, ESL coverage, and a lay-flat comb binding -- have been widely imitated but never improved upon. In the Hacker tradition, the new contributing authors -- Nancy Sommers, Tom Jehn, Jane Rosenzweig, and Marcy Carbajal Van Horn -- have crafted solutions for the writing problems of today's college students. Together they give us a new edition that provides more help with academic writing and that works better for a wider range of multilingual students.Hacker is the author of 'Writer's Reference - Exercises (6th, 07) by Hacker, Diana [Paperback (2007)]' with ISBN 9780312450250 and ISBN 0312450257.
