COLLEGE ENGLISH: COMPOSITION is a guide for those who must take a college composition class-and everyone else interested in the ability to write at a college level. In contrast with other books on the subject, it emphasizes thinking and reading skills over rhetorical and stylistic formulas and rules, and boils these down to the very basics. There are no lists or tables of things to memorize, no jargon, no Greek or Latin. Instead this book offers the essentials, spelled out in the clearest way possible, and illustrated with suitable examples, with the whole organized around easy-to-peruse questions and answers like "What is a Thesis?"-the very questions students, and everyone else, need answers for if they are to succeed.
