Book excerpt: Patterns for College Writing is a best-seller in high schools because its approach to writing works- focusing students on the kinds of reading and writing they will need to do in order to succeed in class and on their state and national exams. The authors provide students with exemplary models and instructors with class-tested selections that balance classic and contemporary essays. Along with more examples of student writing than any other reader, Patterns has the most comprehensive coverage of active reading, research, and the writing process, with a five-chapter mini-rhetoric; the clearest explanations of the patterns of development; and the most thorough apparatus of any rhetorical reader. The new edition includes exciting new readings and expanded coverage of critical reading, working with sources, and research.
