Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
More so than ever before, in this 6th edition of Writing in the Disciplines Mary Kennedy, William Kennedy, and Hadley Smith have taken the opportunity to combine all of their own knowledge and experience with the very best source of feedback available - the users of their own text. The authors have created a text with suggestions from students, instructors, and reviewers that uses the very best qualities of its previous editions while striving to break new ground. The rhetoric teaches students the fundamental strategies for all phases of academic writing — critical reading, paraphrasing, summarizing, quoting, organizing, drafting, revising, editing, synthesizing, analyzing, researching, and developing arguments. The anthology offers engaging reading selections that introduce students to the issues and the methods of study in the sciences, social sciences, and humanities, and that serve as idea banks for their writing assignments. Throughout, students learn how to work individually and collaboratively as they move through the entire process of writing from sources — from reading the original source to planning, drafting and revising essays.

I got the book and the handbook that is suggested. Both were in excellent condition and I received them within 2 weeks of my order. Well before my classes started. I am very satisfied with the products and services the distributor provided me.

I bought this book for a college composition class, and read the assigned essays. Now I go back every once in a while to read the other essays in it, and even re-read the essays I've already read.
The editors did an excellent job selecting well-written, interesting essays on a wide selection of topics from a variety of perspectives. There are essays from professionals, amatures, and students. A few are written by liberals and there are a few from more moderate and conservative sources, including Pat Robertson.
This is the kind of book you can keep handy (like in the bathroom) for times when you want to read something in bite size pieces that is interesting and edifying.
