Inhaltsangabe:

Beginning from the premise that academic writing is a conversation — a collegial exchange of ideas, undertaken in a spirit of collaboration to pursue new knowledge — From Inquiry to Academic Writing: A Practical Guide demystifies cross-curricular thinking and writing by breaking it down into a series of comprehensible habits and skills that students can learn in order to join the conversation.
