Description
About the Book
Academic writing is built on choices, and even a single word can change the strength and direction of an argument. This book helps students move beyond formulas, showing how to draft with purpose, revise for clarity, and build credible, well-supported claims. Through real examples, practical exercises, and clear explanations, it guides writers from research planning to sentence-level refinement. Suitable for both classroom use and independent study, it turns the process of writing academic essays into an engaging practice that develops critical thinking and precision, giving students the tools to succeed across disciplines and in real-world communication.
