The new Concise St. Martin's Guide provides streamlined coverage of the six most commonly assigned genres in first-year composition--remembering events, writing profiles, explaining concepts, arguing a position, proposing a solution, and justifying an evaluation. The Concise Guide leads students through the writing process: Guides to Reading equip students to analyze a genre's basic features, and Axelrod and Cooper's distinctive Guides to Writing help students apply their analysis of reading to the development of their own writing projects. With more hands-on activities for critical reading and working with sources, greater emphasis on the rhetorical situation, and a fresh new design to show students the strategies they need at a glance, the Concise Guide helps students accomplish their writing goals from start to finish. Our newest set of online materials, LaunchPad Solo, provides all the key tools and course-specific content that you need to teach your class.
