Synopsis

A non-intimidating, easy-to-read workbook format and a wealth of exercises are hallmarks of this student-friendly grammar text.

Comprehensive but not overwhelming, the text's coverage of grammar fundamentals concludes with a chapter on paragraph writing.

Practice tests in each chapter―and additional tests in the instructor's manual―provide plenty of opportunities to assess student progress.

Nearly half of the exercises are new or revised with content that focuses on relevant, timely and provocative topics, all within the context of grammar instruction and practice. The text also includes journal writing activities, group activities for collaborative work, and “Alternative Writing Assignments” to give instructors more options.
