Academic Writing cover

This book provides a foundation and framework to enhance your understanding of the various processes involved in academic writing. The term, academic writing, here refers to the types of writing used in college level writing courses at both the undergraduate and graduate level. However, this book was not written simply to help you pass another English class or to get you through the next writing intensive course (although it will certainly do that). At some point you will be out in the real world (hopefully). Thus, the purpose of this book is to enable you to be an effective writer and thinker in all contexts including your personal and professional lives.

Dr. Johnson has demystified the writing process by providing a clear, concise manual to assist the novice writer in the writing process. An excellent companion text to A Short Guide to Action Research in transforming students to scholars.   -- Cynthia F. DiCarlo, PhD, associate professor of early childhood education, School of Education, Louisiana State University
This book describes the processes related to academic writing in a way that enables college students to understand.  There are tips here that make this a useful guide for beginning academic writers as well as experienced writers complete theses or dissertations. -- Nat Pope, PhD, professor of insurance, Illinois State University
Academic Writing: Process and Product is a useful tool for those new to academic writing. This informative text provides practical instruction regarding finding literature, creating structure, improving technical writing, citing sources, and revising. The text includes helpful examples and useful insights to improve academic writing. -- Sarah Marshall, PhD, associate professor, Department of Educational Leadership, Central Michigan University
