“One of the greatest strengths of this book is the author’s tone and style. He is very down-to-earth and encouraging . . . you can tell that Madden is an experienced teacher because he anticipates common questions and problems . . . he bridges personal response to writing a critical essay quite well.”
Professor Daniel Schierenbeck - University of Central Missouri
“The writing coverage is this text’s strongest element. From the process-based writing at the outset to the prompts and questions at the end of each reading, the book gives instructors more than sufficient material to work with and gives students a very healthy, well-rounded set of tools and ideas to create critical essays. The student essays are very good . . grounded enough and real enough that students can connect with them and use them as guides.”
Professor Mark Sheffield Brown - Illinois Valley Community College
