Telling a Research Story: Writing a Literature Review by John M Swales

Telling a Research Story: Writing a Literature Review is concerned with the writing of a literature review and is not designed to address any of the preliminary processes leading up to the actual writing of the literature review. This volume represents a revision and expansion of the material on writing literature reviews that appeared in English in Today's Research World. This volume progresses from general to specific issues in the writing of literature reviews. It opens with some orientations that raise awareness of the issues that surround the telling of a research story. Issues of structure and matters of language, style, and rhetoric are then discussed. Sections on metadiscourse, citation, and paraphrasing and summarizing are included.

Christine B. Feak is an Instructor at the English Language Institute at the University of Michigan. John M. Swales is retired as Professor and Director of the English Language Institute at the University of Michigan. They are the authors of Academic Writing for Graduate Students, 2nd ed.
