This review is from: Writing Philosophy Papers (Paperback)

This is an excellent guide for academic writers, not only for students of Philosophy, for whom, as the title indicates, the book is primarily intended, but for students in all disciplines. The strength of this little manual lies particularly in that, although compact, it leaves nothing to chance. In other words, it covers ground that other well-meaning how-to books on writing assume that authors know, but material with which first-timers are either unfamiliar, or which seasoned writers, specifically writers in other genres, have forgotten. It should be made compulsory reading for all students.
