Riassunto

Written in a lively, conversational tone and amply illustrated, Bookmarks: A Guide to Research and Writing establishes a new benchmark for college research guides, serving as a bridge between old and new traditions for researchers who expect to work regularly in both print and electronic environments.

Bookmarks: A Guide to Writing and Research, Second Edition, demystifies the writing process by engaging and guiding students through the entire research and writing process. The new edition includes an expanded focus on rhetorical issues, addressing audience, authorial stance, and balanced argumentation, encouraging writers to connect their projects to the wider community and to find a clear purpose for their research projects. The completely updated approach to research encourages students to use new technologies to find reliable information, using electronic library catalogs, online databases, and the WWW, encouraging them to use the technologies to locate the sources that are most appropriate for their topics and purposes. Bookmarks attends to all aspects of the research and writing process, guiding students through the strategies for selecting a topic, refining it, and developing it into a full-fledged research hypothesis; finding and positioning sources, using them in appropriate and responsible ways to further their projects, and documenting and completing their final projects for print or electronic publication. Renowned authors John Ruszkiewicz and Janice Walker prepare students for the ever-changing demands of conducting research in today's technology-driven society.
