Review: "With a distinctive focus on what it means to compose for different audiences, The Longman Handbook for Writers and Readers instructs students on ways that they can better communicate their ideas to three different communities - academic, public, and workplace. The Longman Handbook also helps students develop an intuitive understanding of grammar conventions through the use of unique "Reader's Reaction" notes and sustained emphasis on the connections between reading and writing."--BOOK JACKET.
