University of Chicago Press. Very Good. 6 x 1.2 x 9 inches. Paperback. 2013. 464 pages. <br>A little more than seventy-five years ago, Kate L. Turabian drafted a set of guidelines to help students understand how to write, cite, and formally submit research writing. Seven editions and more than nine million copies later, the name Turabi an has become synonymous with best practices in research writing and style. Her Manual for Writers continues to be the gold standa rd for generations of college and graduate students in virtually all academic disciplines. Now in its eighth edition, A Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations has been f ully revised to meet the needs of today's writers and researchers . The Manual retains its familiar three-part structure, beginnin g with an overview of the steps in the research and writing proce ss, including formulating questions, reading critically, building arguments, and revising drafts. Part II provides an overview of citation practices with detailed information on the two main scho larly citation styles (notes-bibliography and author-date), an ar ray of source types with contemporary examples, and detailed guid ance on citing online resources. The final section treats all ma tters of editorial style, with advice on punctuation, capitalizat ion, spelling, abbreviations, table formatting, and the use of qu otations. Style and citation recommendations have been revised th roughout to reflect the sixteenth edition of The Chicago Manual o f Style. With an appendix on paper format and submission that has been vetted by dissertation officials from across the country an d a bibliography with the most up-to-date listing of critical res ources available, A Manual for Writers remains the essential reso urce for students and their teachers. Editorial Reviews Review In addition to featuring new templates for citing e-books, websit es, blogs, social networks, discussion groups, online videos, and podcasts, the eighth edition offers new general advice to help s tudents make good decisions about what information to include for online sources that may not have all the traditional elements us eful in citing a print source. . . .
