With a clear and easy-to-read presentation, visual instruction and pedagogical support, Writing Today is a practical and useful guide to writing for college and beyond.

By teaching kinds of writing (analyses, reports, proposals, etc.), strategies for writing (narration, comparison, argumentation, etc.), and processes for writing (planning, drafting, revising, etc.), Writing Today provides the writer with tools they can mix and match as needed to respond effectively to many writing situations.
