NOTE: This edition features the same content as the traditional text in a convenient, three-hole-punched, loose-leaf version. Books a la Carte also offer a great value; this format costs significantly less than a new textbook. The Curious Writer, Brief Edition, Books A La Carte doesn't read like a textbook or provide a formula for composing essays. Instead, it encourages students to suspend judgment, to ask questions, and to seek answers much like academics do. Yet it covers a wide range of genres beyond the academic essay-narrative, profile, review, ethnography, argument, and more-all with a distinctive approach and "personality" that is lacking in other texts. It also reinforces the assumption that genres are malleable with a new chapter on repurposing or "re-genre-ing." 013449511X / 9780134495118 The Curious Writer, Brief, Books a la Carte Plus REVEL -- Access Card Package 5/e Package consists of: 0134121449 / 9780134121444 The Curious Writer Brief, Books a la Carte Edition 0134243307 / 9780134243306 REVEL for The Curious Writer -- Access Card
