Publisher's Synopsis
For courses in college reading and developmental reading or a freshman English class where reading and writing are taught together.
This text takes a modern approach to teach the two main purposes for college reading: study reading (or reading to learn) and critical reading and thinking (or reading to analyze, evaluate and think). Modern psycholinguistic and reader-response theory is used to teach. Writing strategies help students remember and think about what they read. Links between reading and writing are made at every opportunity.
