Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

This rhetoric, reader, research paper guide, and brief handbook is the first writing text to fully explain the how's and why's of critical thinking. Four-in-One places the acts of writing and reading in a framework of critical thinking; a theme which is sustained throughout the chapters on the writing process and the patterns of organization. The discussion of critical thinking is integrated into the chapters on the writing process and the patterns of organization. Through this unique approach, students learn how to use reflective and critical thinking in writing and reading. The book is designed for maximum flexibility-each part of the book is self-contained. The readings section of the book is organized alphabetically so instructors are not locked into approaching any one reading from the perspective of a single rhetorical pattern. The text also features an ESL section in its handbook, a unique chapter on using the Internet for research, and individual and collaborative exercises throughout. > For those interested in developing their reading, writing and critical thinking skills. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

This review is from: Four in One: Rhetoric, Reader, Research Guide, and Handbook (4th Edition) (Paperback)

While the overall content of this book is good, it is lacking as a reference tool and that is too bad. The index is horrific. A book that advertises itself on the cover as including `rhetoric' would be better organized. Look up the term `sentence structure' and the user is lead to a proof reading section??? Does this book not teach sentence structure? It is elementary in every other way. It is almost like the index was created for a different book! It has other serious flaws as well. One would think that a book that advertises itself on the cover as being a `handbook' would at least cover all the punctuation on a computer keyboard. It does not! While it has much of the information one needs to be able to create a college level paper, its organization is severely lacking. Editor!!!

This review is from: Four in One: Rhetoric, Reader, Research Guide, and Handbook (4th Edition) (Paperback)
It could be the way the teacher is teaching the class because we hardly ever use the book and what parts that I've used seemed to be somewhat helpful. I'm just not too happy with the book.
