These process maps give students an overview of the whole writing process and help them stay oriented as they discover ideas, draft, and revise their own papers. “ Writer at work” sections show examples of student writers working throughout the whole messy, creative process, from invention through revision to a final paper (Chapters 6-12). “ Write Now' boxes give brief writing assignments that are designed to help student discover ideas and explore where they lead.

The visuals, many of them photographs taken by the author, not only make every page of the text lively and engaging, but also serve to support the main points made in each chapter. Most reading selections are designed to look like original publications (an editorial looks like a page from a newspaper, a Web article looks like a Web page, and so on), thus exposing students to a diversity of genres they will encounter in college and beyond. “Staying on Track” boxes included throughout the book focus on common writing problems and give students concrete advice for how to avoid such problems, including both “off track” and “on track” examples that help to illustrate these problems.
Instruction in and strategies for the research process in Part 4 includes avoiding plagiarism, evaluating sources, and using library databases and the Internet as research tools (Chapters 15-19). Eight student papers, all with sources and citations, give students realistic, accurate models.
