The author has taken a practical, demystifying approach to the subject...The suggested activities throughout are really quite interesting and would make you want to get started on your own writiing...I would certainly recommend this one. (The Lecturer)

Plenty of activities. Sufficient detail. Right level. Recommended by chief examiners. (Mr Wallace, Woodhouse Sixth Form College)

Excellent. George Keith is very good in this regard, with books reflecting his courses and backed up by a writing team of practising teachers. (Mr B Lead, St Wilfrids C of E High School)

...these books would be an invaluable resource for any English Department teaching an 'A' Level sylalbus with language study in it. (The Use of English)

Clearly written, very accessible and at the appropriate level for the course. Written with syllabus requirements in mind. (Ms S A Hawkins, Stockport College of Technology)

...well-written, well-organised, never remotely patronising. Any sane English department will have the original, the new eight (and accompanying tape) as soon as budgets permit...These are patient manuals and the authors have seleted genuinely interesting extracts to inform and illustrate their arguments.
