The Mad Scientist’s Guide to Composition : A Somewhat Cheeky but Exceedingly Useful Introduction to Academic Writing Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Considering the composition classroom as a mad scientist’s laboratory, The Mad Scientist’s Guide to Composition introduces different kinds of writing as experiments.

Writing an essay is a task that can strike fear into a student’s heart, but performing an experiment licenses creativity and doesn’t presume that one knows the outcome from the start.

The Mad Scientist’s Guide covers the kinds of writing most often required on college campuses, while also addressing important steps and activities frequently overlooked in composition guides, such as revision and peer reviewing.

Actual examples of student writing are included throughout, as are helpful reminders and tips to help students polish their skills.

Above all, the Mad Scientist’s Guide seeks to make writing fun.
