Writing a successful research paper is not easy, but Stanley
Chodorow's book is so lucid and well organized that, with it as an
aid, students will find the process less daunting--and perhaps even
satisfying. The sixth chapter, on using evidence, is the best and
most helpful thing I've ever read on that crucial topic. --Al
Filreis, Kelly Professor of English, Faculty Director of the Kelly
Writers House, and Director of the Center for Programs in
Contemporary Writing, University of Pennsylvania
From freshman theme to graduate thesis, the research paper is a
complex assignment. This readable and engaging book guides students
through the process of producing one, explaining not only how to
approach each step along the way but also how sound execution of
each step contributes to a successful outcome. Its clear
organization allows students either to dip into the book as needed
or read it cover to cover. --Carolyn Lougee Chappell, Frances and
Charles Field Professor in History, Martin Family Fellow in
Undergraduate Education, and Director of Structured Liberal
Education, Stanford University
At last!--a short and snappy book on how to approach writing
research papers. This volume is a welcome alternative to the thick
'how-to' books that stress mechanics. Chodorow helps one think
through the process of crafting a research paper. All else follows
thereafter. --Carol DeBoer-Langworthy, Department of English, Brown
University
