5.0 out of 5 stars Principles of Writing Research Papers
A very reader friendly guide to writing research papers. As a first time researcher I find the book a huge help. Everything the instructor said in class is in the book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Meh.
This newest version keeps the nice format of the previous edition,BUT for some reason students don't follow it as easily. Some basic elements like using italics for book titles are hidden. The examples are sometimes hard to follow and end up creating more questions than it answers. The example for block quoting does not efficiently show the one-inch indent.
Meh.

3.0 out of 5 stars OK for new writers, April 1, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This text is an ok reference book if you have no experience in writing papers or essays. Otherwise, I think it is pretty basic; I didn't learn anything that I didn't already know, but I've had to write a lot of papers over the years.
