A Pocket Style Manual by Diana Hacker
With advice for finding, evaluating, and documenting sources, this handy spiral-bound booklet covers the essential information college students need for research assignments in more than 30 disciplines. Reflecting a broader range of research interests, the fifth edition includes 50 new specialized library and Web sources -- all annotated -- that help students find reliable and current information on diverse subjects. New, up-to-date documentation models guide students as they cite common sources and newer sources -- such as blogs, podcasts, and online videos -- in one of four documentation styles (MLA, APA, Chicago, and CSE).
Nancy Sommers, who has taught composition and directed composition programs for thirty years, now teaches writing and mentors new writing teachers at Harvard s Graduate School of Education. She led Harvard s Expository Writing Program for twenty years, directing the first-year writing program and establishing Harvard s WAC program. A two-time Braddock Award winner, Sommers is well known for her research and publications on student writing. Her articles Revision Strategies of Student and Experienced Writers and Responding to Student Writing are two of the most widely read and anthologized articles in the field of composition. Her recent work involves a longitudinal study of college writing to understand the role writing plays in undergraduate education. Sommers is the lead author on Hacker handbooks, all published by Bedford/St. Martin s, and is coauthor of Fields of Reading, Ninth Edition (2010).
