Too many college writing guides tell students what *not* to do without giving them sufficient instruction on how to craft original papers. I assign this book to all my undergraduates, and I think it has helped considerably in cutting down instances of plagiarism and other misuse of sources.

Text used @ Harvard to this day, excellent reference, NOT one of those books you throw away or sell after class. Relevant at all academic levels and life after.
