Abstract: | Short chapters addressing every topic a writing instructor might cover allow teachers to assign chapters in whatever order they wish, making The Norton Field Guide to Writing with Readings and Handbook a great choice for committees struggling to accommodate diverse teaching approaches. The three-books-in-one format gives teachers the flexibility of centering their syllabus on either the rhetoric or the readings, while links help them draw connections to the other half. ... The handbook is organized around the intuitive categories of Sentences, Words, and Punctuation, making it easy for students to find what they.re looking for. Written in everyday language, the Handbook includes minimum terminology and color-coded links referring students to the glossary/index if they need detailed definitions. ... The Fourth Edition features 67 readings.20 in the rhetoric chapters in the front of the book and 47 in the anthology in the back. Of this total, 28 readings (more than forty percent) are new to this edition.5 in the rhetoric chapters and 23 in the anthology. Ranging from a rhetorical analysis of "The Reassuring Appeal of 'Weird Al' Yankovic" to danah boyd's evaluation of "Wikipedia as a Site of Knowledge Production" to a report on "Why We Keep Playing the Lottery," the new readings will engage students and spark lively responses. |
