Ordered as part of a course I was taking, but then the school changed the book to be used. I kept it as it contains much need information that I know I can use in academic writing.

I received the product quickly and the product is even better than described. I am very satisfied! Thanks a lot!

The product was exactly what I needed for class and they were out of books at school, so many of us got books from

The book I purchased " The Essentials of Academic Writing" was spot on. It 's a book that I can use in the future.The only thing that's bothersome is that my professor is not using it in his class, go figure.
