Overview

"Perspectives: Readings for Writers is a contemporary, thematically arranged reader that contains outstanding selections and a unique, flexible pedagogy. Half the selections are by women, and over a third by minority writers who represent a wide range of styles and perspectives. A third of the professional essays are arguments, reflecting different styles and voices as well as varying levels of accessibility and complexity. Outstanding features include: Unique pedagogy that includes a practical approach to critical reading: questions divided into three meaningful parts - Experience, Interpretation, and Evaluation - that stimulate thoughtful responses based on previous knowledge and experience and move to more considered reflection on cultural and social contexts. The approach to writing reinforces and grows out of this approach to reading. Exploring, Interpreting, and Evaluating writing suggestions move from personal experience, to close analysis, and finally to reflective evaluation and a critical consciousness."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
