Bailey, a writer of materials for English for academic purposes, offers a handbook on academic writing for international students at the undergraduate or graduate level. He explains the writing process, including finding sources, developing critical approaches, avoiding plagiarism, planning, note-taking, summarizing and paraphrasing, using references and quotations, combining sources, organizing paragraphs, and rewriting and proofreading; the elements of writing, such as argument and discussion, cause and effect, cohesion, comparisons, definitions, examples, generalizations, problems and solutions, punctuation, style, and visual information; vocabulary and grammar; and writing models for case studies, literature and book reviews, long essays, reports, and surveys. This edition has an emphasis on academic vocabulary and has been updated with sections on finding electronic sources and evaluating internet material.
