WRITING AND READING ACROSS THE CURRICULUM
BRIEF EDITION
Third Edition
Laurence Behrens and Leonard J. Rosen

This brief version of the best-selling cross-curricular classic retains its hallmark coverage of source-based writing skills, accompanied by five popular readings chapters. An essential text for student writers in any academic discipline, Writing and Reading Across the Curriculum, Brief Edition, teaches students of all majors and interests to communicate more effectively.

In this third edition, you will find compelling new units, including:

• A new chapter on marriage and family in America that explores the changing roles (and expectations) of women as “wives,” gay marriage, and “the radical idea” of marrying for love.
• A new chapter on sleep that focuses on the science of sleep and why adolescents and college students are chronically shortchanged.
• A new appendix from Longman, Avoiding Plagiarism, that helps you understand how to use source material appropriately in your college writing.
