Deskripsi Buku
The content of this book by nature is a blending of traditional thought and contemporary awareness in rhetoric linguistics and other related fields as well The materials are not narrowly prescriptive but neither do they underestimate the importance of conventions in public writing A key example of this quality of balance is the emphasis in most parts of the book on both the requirements of logic and the dictates of rhetoric in planning English sentence structure Another example is the book rsquo s constant attention to the demands of the writer rsquo s idea as well as the needs of readers To put the matter in a slightly different way readers are well served only by writing that pursues sound thought at least as effectively as readers rsquo appeal The principle behind this is simply this readers need to be not only attracted and persuaded but also helped to understand In most units of this book practical sensible and clear advice on grammar usage and mechanics are offered It is a commonplace to say that learners profit more form descriptions of pattern than from traditional definitions so this book strikes a balance of those mentioned approaches Moreover in each of the sections of the book the treatment of principles and problems is ample yet thoughtfully selective Conscious effort has been made to concentrate on matters that may really need attention in college as well as professional writing programs
The content of this book, by nature, is a blending of traditional thought and contemporary awareness-in rhetoric, linguistics, and other related fields as well. The materials are not narrowly prescriptive, but neither do they underestimate the importance of conventions in public writing. A key example of this quality of ...balance is the emphasis in most parts of the book on both the requirements of logic and the dictates of rhetoric in planning English sentence structure. Another example is the book’s constant attention to the demands of the writer’s idea as well as the needs of readers. To put the matter in a slightly different way: readers are well served only by writing that pursues sound thought at least as effectively as readers’ appeal. The principle behind this is simply this: readers need to be not only attracted and persuaded, but also helped to understand.
In most units of this book, practical, sensible, and clear advice on grammar, usage, and mechanics are offered. It is a commonplace to say that learners profit more form descriptions of pattern than from traditional definitions, so this book strikes a balance of those mentioned-approaches. Moreover, in each of the sections of the book, the treatment of principles and problems is ample yet thoughtfully selective. Conscious effort has been made to concentrate on matters that may really need attention in college as well as professional writing programs.
