This book provides practical guidance for student writers of all types of research papers. This new edition features separate chapters for and expanded coverage of the "Chicago Manual of Style", Modern Language Association of America (MLA), and American Psychological Association (APA) systems. The clarity, coverage and easy-to-use format make this book suitable as either an instructional or independent reference text in a wide variety of courses. Most research manuals assume that students have mastered the research process, when in fact even many advanced students need a review of the basics. Most writing texts give little attention to the requirements of academic inquiry. This book aims to address both needs by offering succinct, clear explanations of the basic processes of research and writing, integrated with a scholarly, rigorous approach to issues such as evidence, quotation and citation of sources.
