Applied the knowledge from here within the professional developlment module. The approach towards deeper arguing hopefully will apply a more critical stance to what the students are submitting. The reading in sections is deep and allows for a more detailed understanding.
Very useful book for building skills in academic writing. Now on reading lists throughout the undergraduate programme.
An excellent introductory range of argument and argumentation, simply abnd accessibly written but really informative!
