EDITORIAL REVIEW

Beginning from the premise that all academic writing is conversational — a collegial exchange of ideas, undertaken in a spirit of collaboration in the pursuit of new knowledge — From Inquiry to Academic Writing 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 enter those conversations. The second part of the book provides a sampling of those conversations in a thematic reader that reprints substantial essays by intellectuals both inside and outside the university. By equipping students with the tools they need to think and write academically, and prompting them to respond to readings that explore profound issues and ideas, From Inquiry to Academic Writing emboldens students to contribute to important cultural conversations they will encounter in college and beyond.

I like the product and how quickly it was delivered but the book is definitely more used than I thought it was going to be. The covers fold out a bit which is annoying and there is some odd highlighting on some pages, but overall I am content with my purchase.

The book arrived in perfect condition just like it said, and the shipping wasn't that long either.

The speed that the vendor sent the purchased item was excellent. The book seemed to have a little more wear than I expected, but it was completely serviceable and satisfactory.

I ordered this textbook, needing it in order to start class. I never received the book and ended up ordering another copy at considerable more expense plus next day shipping or I could have failed the class. When I contacted the seller, I was told there was nothing that could be done about it since they had mailed it and I was probably just trying not to get out of paying for the item. I don't appreciate the accusation and will never purchase from this seller again or recommend this seller to anyone else.
