This book would be useful not only for composition scholars and instructors, but for anyone in any field who feels obligated to teach his or her students how to write."--Tom Philion, University of Illinois-Chicago "Provides a broad-based awareness of contemporary perspectives on composition pedagogy."--Jerie Weasmer, Eastern Illinois University Praise for the previous edition (first 4 quotes): "A classic introduction to the profession, for which the editors have selected a series of essays whose focus is openly practical and pedagogical--thus adamantly reasserting the close connection of our scholarship with the classroom.

Both within and among chapters there is appropriate balance of theory and practice--just what new teachers need."--Duane H.
